Suns' Devin Booker Ranked as No. 1 Shooting Guard

Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker is the best player at his position.

There's not much convincing you have to do with Phoenix Suns fans when it comes to who the best shooting guard in the league is. 

Devin Booker has elevated his game to entire new levels in recent memory, placing his name among some of the best scorers in the league as the Suns have gotten closer to championship status. 

HoopsHype's Frank Urbina ranked Booker as the No. 1 shooting guard in the league:

"Still, the clear top dog at the 2-guard position heading into 2023-24 is Devin Booker, an efficient scoring machine who can drop buckets from three, from the midrange or near the basket, off the dribble or with his feet set, and one who has proven he can lead teams as far as the Finals, something he accomplished not all that long ago in 2020-21. The Suns will have a lot of expectations weighing on them next season, having Durant around from the start of the campaign this time and following the offseason addition of Beal. Will Booker or Beal be the team’s primary point guard? And how will Booker mesh playing with two other ball-dominant scorers? Those are just a couple of questions surrounding Booker into 2023-24 but they weren’t enough for us to have him anywhere but first overall in our shooting guard rankings for next season."

Booker finished ahead of Donovan Mitchell, Jaylen Brown, Zach LaVine and Anthony Edwards to round out the top five. New Suns teammate Bradley Beal fell to No. 6 in the rankings.
