Phoenix Suns have really been unpredictable this season. Not only they have managed to pull of screamers but they have also lost some easy match ups. Although the Phoenix Suns extended their unbeaten run to 3 against the Dallas Mavericks. Yet again they come over Luka Doncic’s magic plays. This time just by a single point. Devin Booker managed to convert a clutch three pointer with an assist from Chris Paul, the veteran point guard.

Devin Booker’s game winner sealed 11th victory this season for the Phoenix Suns. Booker definitely has registered himself as one of the best clutch player in the league. He has always delivered when the team needed a bucket desperately. This was Devin’s fifth career go-ahead shot in the final five seconds of the game. He has already got important buckets over superstar quality players. However, Devin started the game poorly going 1-7 from the field. He was hyped in the 3rd quarter as he gathered momentum. As he stepped up late to deliver, he got when it mattered the most.

Devin Booker following idol Kobe Bryant’s footsteps

It was Chris Paul who kept the team in game. He had 32 points in the game. But Devin’s bucket sealed the deal for the Phoenix Suns. Devin Booker has always been vocal about his love for former legend and one of the greatest, Kobe Bryant. He grew up idolizing the legend. Kobe was one such clutch player in his career. He has got some of the coldest clutch game winners in his record. And it is amazing to see a youngster like Devin Booker getting a similar touch as his idol.

Devin Booker’s previous came against the Clippers over a player like Paul George. This kept alive their unbeaten streak. The fact that he hits some of the best clutch has made him stand square with LeBron James for most game winning buzzer beater since 2015. LeBron James is just another player who cannot be compared to any for his ability to hit game winners. Hopefully being the 7th in conference they will look to hold it up and end up at the playoffs this season.
