Devin Booker of the Phoenix Suns looks to ready to go for the new season after making the NBA Finals last year.
View the original article to see embedded media.The Phoenix Suns crushed the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday by a score of 119-74.
Even in the preseason a 45-point blowout is something to be surprised by in an NBA game.
The Suns had All-Star shooting guard Devin Booker looking to be in top-notch form after a season in which he and the Suns made the Finals last year (losing to the Milwaukee Bucks in six games).
Booker went off for 17 points on 60% from the field and 50% shooting from the three-point range in just 18 minutes of action.
At just 25 years old, the two-time All-Star has not even hit his prime yet, which should be a scary sight for rival teams around The NBA.
This kind of performance in a meaningless preseason game after he went all the way to the Finals, and then to Tokyo to play in the Olympics for Team USA this summer (and win a gold medal), is impressive and shows that he is right on track for another big time season this year.
