The Phoenix Suns may have dodged a bullet.
Per the Phoenix Suns’ communications department, Devin Booker will be re-evaluated in one week after suffering a right ankle sprain on Friday in Atlanta.
That one-week re-evaluation doesn’t guarantee a return at that date, as you all know. But if he is cleared to begin ramping it up a week from now, that bodes well for an early February return with him missing 8 games or less in total, hopefully.
In related news, Booker has been spotted at Mullet Arena to watch his young teammates Khaman Maluach and Rasheer Fleming as they are on assignment.
Stephen PridGeon-Garner notes that he is in shoes, not a boot or crutches. A positive development that pairs nicely with the update we received in our inbox.
The Suns begin a 5-game homestand tonight against Miami that will run through next Sunday. Nine of their next ten games will be played at home in Phoenix.
