The NBA needs playoff Devin Booker

If you had questions about Devin Booker before the NBA’s restart bubble, I’m not sure anyone would have a huge problem with you. However, after what Booker has done in the bubble you can’t question his ability, drive, or potential.

During the seven seeding games thus far, Booker is averaging 31 points, six assists, and 4.5 rebounds per game on 50 percent shooting from the field and 35 percent shooting from 3-point range. If Booker is doing this in the bubble, can you imagine what he would be able to do in a potential playoff series?

In the NBA, star players only get better when the brightest lights are on. In the playoffs, you would almost expect Booker to take his game up a notch. The NBA needs playoff Devin Booker. Even if the Suns wouldn’t have much of a shot against the Lakers in the playoff series, we need to see Booker vs. the world in the postseason.
