Suns’ Devin Booker sidelined for a minimum of one week due to ankle sprain

PHOENIX — Suns All-Star guard Devin Booker is set to be sidelined for a minimum of one week due to a sprained right ankle.

A four-time All-Star, Booker, who is scheduled for re-evaluation in a week, sustained the injury alongside guard Jalen Green during Friday’s defeat against the Atlanta Hawks.

Booker, the leading scorer for the Suns with an average of 25.4 points and 6.2 assists per game, fell with five seconds left in the third quarter after landing on the foot of the Hawks’ Onyeka Okongwu.

Green re-aggravated his right hamstring in his second game back after being absent for 33 games. He was seen walking without a limp following the game, and the Suns are optimistic that it will not result in a long-term issue.
