Phoenix Suns’ standout player Devin Booker recently showcased his dominance in a commanding performance against the New Orleans Pelicans, demonstrating his exceptional form throughout the latter half of the season, while also carrying the team alongside teammate Kevin Durant.
Booker’s impressive records with the Suns have solidified his status as one of the franchise’s greatest players. His remarkable consistency over the past two seasons has only been matched by Tom Chambers in 1990.
Most 40+ point games in a season in Phoenix Suns history:
• Devin Booker: 7 this year
• Devin Booker: 7 last year
• Tom Chambers: 7 in 1990— Shane Young (@YoungNBA) April 4, 2024
Devin Booker’s remarkable consistency in delivering 40+ point performances for the Suns is notable. He recently matched his previous season’s feat of scoring more than 40 points in seven games for the Phoenix Suns, a record achieved only twice in the franchise’s history. Booker replicated this achievement last season, joining club icon Tom Chambers, who accomplished it in 1990.
Booker’s significant contributions to the franchise have endeared him to fans, positioning him as a legendary figure. While he has achieved considerable individual success, securing team glory has proven challenging. Fans had high hopes for him, Kevin Durant, and Bradley Beal to elevate the franchise’s fortunes, but such a turnaround seems unlikely with the regular season nearly concluded.
In a standout performance against the New Orleans Pelicans, Devin Booker dropped an impressive 52 points, marking the third time he has scored 50+ points against the Pelicans in a single game. This achievement saw him equal NBA legend Wilt Chamberlain’s record of scoring more than 50 points against a single opponent in a season.

Despite the Pelicans’ best efforts, they have struggled to contain Booker in their recent matchups. Fans are left speculating about the reasons behind Booker’s exceptional performances against the Pelicans, but as of yet, no rumors or statements have surfaced to explain the Suns star’s remarkable form.
Booker have done this before:
In a remarkable game on March 24, 2017, Boston initially dominated Phoenix, leading by as much as 26 points. However, the momentum shifted dramatically in the second half as 20-year-old Devin Booker ignited an incredible surge. Displaying his versatility with drives, pull-up shots, and three-pointers, Booker led the Suns in a spirited comeback. Despite their efforts, the Suns ultimately fell short, losing 130-120. Nevertheless, Booker etched his name in NBA history by becoming the youngest player ever to reach the 70-point milestone in a single game. This feat places him in elite company alongside basketball legends such as Wilt Chamberlain, David Robinson, David Thompson, Elgin Baylor, and Kobe Bryant, who have also achieved this remarkable scoring milestone.
