The Phoenix Suns have had a solid start this year. They are really continuing where they left from the bubble. Their star, Devin Booker was unstoppable in the bubble. And so is he now. Adding Chris Paul to the roster, Phoenix Suns are stronger again. They have improved a lot this season and it is quite evident. After defeating Milwaukee Bucks, courtesy to Giannis Antetokounmpo missing game-winning shot, Phoenix’s morale must be real high.

The Phoenix Suns are targeting the playoffs spot for sure. Devin Booker and Chris Paul duo is getting all the attention in the NBA. A tough and intense game closed out with 125-124 as Giannis Antetokounmpo missed the game winner. Devin booker and Chris Paul added 30 points and 28 points respectively. Although Giannis had 47 points and 11 rebounds that added a double-double, he still couldn’t get his team past the finish line. In the post-game interview, Devin Booker seemingly took a shot at Giannis Antetokounmpo. The reigning MVP missed a potential game winner and the Suns held their win. To this, Devin said “We’re in good shape” when confronted if he was nervous when Giannis took the game winner.

Devin Booker digs up to Giannis Antetokounmpo miss

Giannis missed a sitter. He was uncontested from the mid-range. And yet he filed to deliver the clutch shot the team needed. Milwaukee franchise isn’t an average performer. It just wasn’t their day. Coming so close yet falling apart. This must have raised a lot of questions and the MVP radar deflecting away from Giannis. Booker’s comment displayed that he and the team wasn’t concerned when Giannis took the shot. Given his history of poor shooting record and number of air balls, any team could count on that.

More criticism seems to engulf the Bucks franchise after their easy losses. Although their All-Star is dominant in making buckets under the rim, he fails miserably while shooting. Giannis Antetokounmpo isn’t improving as expected. This was a major reason Devin Booker and team were least concerned when Giannis attempted the game winner. While if it was Khris Middleton, the team would have scrambled up to contest his shot.
