Booker is in the starting lineup for Thursday's preseason game against the Lakers.

Booker will start at shooting guard alongside Tyus Jones in the backcourt.

Suns' Devin Booker: Out with ankle problem
Booker is not in the starting lineup for Friday's preseason game against the Pistons due to right ankle soreness, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
The Suns are not concerned about Booker's ankle injury, but they're being extremely cautious with it, so he won't be featuring here. The goal for Booker is to be healthy and available for the Oct. 23 regular-season opener against the Clippers, so it's uncertain if Booker will play in the rest of the preseason.

Suns' Devin Booker: Struggles with shot Tuesday
Booker scored 10 points (4-13 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT) while adding three assists, a rebound and a block in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 105-97 preseason win over the Pistons
It was a rough shooting night for Booker, but with the regular season still two weeks away, the four-time All-Star has plenty of time to find his form. He's averaged better than 25 points in six straight seasons, and with Tyus Jones solidifying the point guard position for the Suns, Booker should be able to better focus on his scoring duties rather than taking on more of a distribution role. However, that also likely means he won't be able to repeat the career-high 6.9 assists per game he delivered in 2023-24.

Suns' Devin Booker: Leads starters with 12 points
Booker finished Sunday's 118-14 preseason win over the Lakers with 12 points (4-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists and two rebounds over 14 minutes.
None of the Suns' starters outside of Tyus Jones played more than 14 minutes Sunday, but Booker managed to score in double digits alongside Bradley Beal (11). Booker played a crucial role in Team USA's gold medal campaign at the Paris Olympics, and he'll look to carry that momentum into the 2024-25 season.

Suns' Devin Booker: Moving back to shooting guard
Coach Mike Budenholzer said Friday that Booker is expected to start at shooting guard in 2024-25, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Booker is expected to start alongside Tyus Jones and Bradley Beal as Phoenix's shooting guard next season. In 2023-24, Booker mostly served as the team's starting point guard, which saw his assists per game ascend to a career-high 6.9. With Jones now slated to take on the primary playmaking role, Booker could see his assists numbers decline slightly.
