Devin Booker Responds To Anthony Davis Claiming The Lakers Would Have Beat The Suns If He Didn’t Get Injured: “That Was Going To Happen Anyway. It’s Just Funny.”

Last season, the Phoenix Suns had one of the best postseason runs in recent memory. The team led by the star duo of Chris Paul and Devin Booker, managed to defeat the likes of the Los Angeles Lakers, Denver Nuggets, and Los Angeles Clippers.

As a result of that phenomenal playoff run, the Suns reached the NBA Finals. But they were finally defeated at the hands of Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks.

While most praised the Suns for their amazing run last season, Lakers' Anthony Davis had something else in mind. Recently, Davis said that he believes the only reason that the Suns got past the Lakers was due to him being injured.

Now, AD is a sensational player and can change the outcome of the game on any given night. But completely writing off the Suns might be a tad bit too much. It appears like Devin Booker believes that too.

After he and the Suns utterly dominated the Lakers in their most recent matchup, Booker responded to AD's claims. D-Book revealed:

"Naah, that was going to happen anyways. I just think it's funny... It's all the ifs.If ifs was a fifth, we’d all be drunk. If my auntie had something between her legs, she’d be my uncle. There’s a lot of if’s in this game. And you look at history along the lines, there’s something that comes up for every team during every season. Instead of just taking the high route and going, you have to make a comment like that."
