One of the most anticipated matchups of the young season, the Phoenix Suns hosting the Golden State Warriors, lost some luster in the first half when Devin Booker left with a left hamstring injury. Booker did not return to the game, which the Suns won 104-96 for their 17th straight victory, tied for the longest win streak in franchise history.
Booker had scored 10 points on 4-of-9 shooting prior to exiting halfway through the second quarter.
Hopefully this was more of a precautionary measure and not something that will keep Booker out for significant time. Booker was seen cheering from the bench in the second half.
Phoenix, which now sits atop the Western Conference at 18-3, plays Golden State again on Friday.
We will update this post when an official diagnosis is made.
