Well-known reporter: Booker will play impressive data, but the Suns record may not be too good?

Recently, Tim Legler, a well-known NBA reporter, talked about the situation of Phoenix Suns' backcourt star Devin Booker in the podcast "ALL NBA Podcast". Legler believes that Booker may experience a big explosion in personal data in the new season.

Legler said: Is the new season a planned reconstruction for the Suns, or will it be a year they are completely lost? I think Booker, who is 28 years old, will probably have two to three years of peak period. He can still reach his best during this period, and this state is very outstanding and he will play more eye-catching data. With Kevin Durant leaving the team, Booker will once again become the team's number one offensive player. This player who once led the team to the NBA Finals will usher in a higher tactical position. When Booker enters that pure scoring mode, he will perform very well and it will be difficult for his opponent to effectively limit him. But I'm not sure their team will improve much in terms of their record. The competition among the Western Conference teams is very fierce, and I don't know if they can win enough games and let the team appear in the playoffs, but there is one thing that is undoubtedly that Devin Booker himself will have a unique season.

In the NBA regular season last season, Booker made a total of 75 appearances in 82 games, averaging 37.3 minutes per game, averaging 25.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, 7.1 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 2.9 turnovers and 2.6 fouls, shooting percentage of 46.1%, three-point shooting percentage of 33.2%, and free throw shooting percentage of 89.4%. Booker's personal performance and statistics were actually good last season. It seems that he still maintained his good scoring ability, and his performance in passing and organizing offense is also worthy of recognition. Unfortunately, under the leadership of Durant and Booker, the Suns' record last season was very bad, and they didn't even get a playoff spot, and the team had huge problems with the chemistry.

The Suns have undergone tremendous changes in lineup in the new season. Durant and Bradley Beal, two major scorers, left the team one after another, which means that Bill will get a lot of ball rights and extremely high tactical status in the new season, and he also has the opportunity to produce very impressive data. However, with the depth of the Suns' current lineup, it is indeed not easy to break through the fiercely competitive West. The new season is also an excellent opportunity for Booker to prove his ability. Can he prove that he can lead the team to achieve a decent record while leading the team alone?
