Against the Bulls tonight, Devin Booker became one of four players in NBA history to score 50+ points in a game with 25 or fewer shot attempts and in 31 or fewer minutes
And he did it all in three quarters. Suns didn’t need him in the fourth

With Donovan going to subs, it’s unlikely Devin Booker returns for Suns. This will make his 51 points even more ridiculous. It came in 3 quarters—and Booker didn’t score until midway through 1st.
So basically, 51 points in 2 1/2 quarters on 20-25 FGs – 11:16 PM

Remembered Devin Booker having a couple of good games against DeMar DeRozan recently, someone he has loads of respect for, so I checked the numbers.
Booker in the last 4 matchups: 34.5 PPG on 57.1 FG% – 8:58 PM

Game 1 of the first #Celtics mini series this year. Love these and Miami is a great choice. They’ve probably played the Celtics as well as the Cavs, Bulls have, albeit in a losing effort. They’ve won 3 straight, coming off a few off days. Tip-off NOW. @CelticsCLNS pic.twitter.com/M9FO0EPLi3 – 7:40 PM

The Bulls are 9-11. They are three games out of homecourt advantage.
I agree they aren’t a contender, but blowing them up this soon seems insane.
Yes, this is fully in response to all the chatter on the timeline tonight, not any real rumors or trade talks I’ve heard about. – 5:58 PM
