Suns reportedly plan to build around Booker

The Suns are reportedly committed to keeping Devin Booker and improving the roster around him, while Booker has indicated he would ideally spend his career in Phoenix. But the team’s poor start and recent early playoff exits have renewed questions about whether it can build a contender around its longtime star. One report argues Phoenix should at least consider trade offers as a way to reset, given its limited resources for adding talent. Former NBA player Chandler Parsons called Booker the greatest Sun ever and said he deserves a statue, while suggesting he could eventually leave; another analyst also questioned whether Phoenix can assemble a championship-caliber team around him.
