Devin Booker Signs Record $150M Extension with Suns

Devin Booker, the Phoenix Suns' franchise all-time leading scorer, has signed a two-year, $150 million extension that begins in the 2028-29 season, making him the highest-paid NBA player on a per-year basis with an average of $75 million annually. Booker, a four-time All-Star and two-time All-NBA selection, is entering his 11th NBA season and remains the cornerstone of a Suns team entering a rebuilding phase after missing the playoffs for the first time since 2019-20. The Suns have traded Kevin Durant to the Houston Rockets and are undergoing roster changes along with a new head coach, aiming to develop a young, long, athletic, and physical team. Despite the recent struggles, Booker has been actively involved in reshaping the franchise and is expected to lead the youthful roster with hopes of reaching the play-in tournament in the 2025-26 season. His leadership and legacy as the Suns' best player remain pivotal as Phoenix looks to rebuild and reestablish itself in the competitive Western Conference. The extension confirms Booker’s long-term commitment to the Suns through 2030, solidifying his place as the franchise’s key figure moving forward.
