Why Did the Rockets Suddenly Abandon Their Pursuit of the Suns’ Biggest Star?
Something is going to happen to the Phoenix Suns this summer.
No one is sure what will occur, but it seems incredibly unlikely that the team will look the exact same at the start of next season.
The team could do business with a number of other franchises, but it sounds like the Houston Rockets will not move forward with trying to acquire Devin Booker.
Writing for The Athletic, Kelly Iko and Sam Amick wrote about the Rockets going lukewarm with their “serious interest” in Booker.
“The Rockets have previously held serious interest in the Suns’ Devin Booker, but team sources said that is no longer the case. Not only do team officials still have faith in Jalen Green, who is five years younger than Booker and $66 million cheaper over the next three seasons, but also Booker’s struggles last season shifted the thinking on this front,” Iko and Amick shared.
