NBA Trade Rumors: Uncertainty around Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker’s future
Phoenix Suns’ young shooting guard Devin Booker is only 24 years old, and despite his young years, Booker is regarded as one of the best players in the league.
Devin Booker has shown signs of being a perennial All-Star, as he has tormented teams in the regular season despite playing with an average roster. The youngster has never made the playoffs, and the Phoenix Suns have failed to put a talented squad around him.
In an appearance on Bills Simmons’ podcast, Ryen Russillo provided insight on Devin Booker’s current situation. He said:
Booker’s skill-set has helped him become a phenomenal talent, and it isn’t surprising to see that he is looking to join a playoff-level team or even a contender.

Boston Celtics’ Gordon Hayward considering opting out of his contract
The conversation then moved on to the subject of Gordon Hayward’s future, with the veteran having the option to opt-out of his contract this offseason. The Boston Celtics view themselves as contenders, and Gordon Hayward has struggled with injuries and bad form.
Hayward has also slipped down the Boston Celtics’ pecking order in terms of shots per game after the emergence of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. NBA trade rumors suggest that Hayward might be on his way out, and Russillo highlighted the same:
Both the Phoenix Suns and the Boston Celtics have been the subject of various NBA trade rumors and will have some key decisions to make this offseason. The Suns missed the playoffs last season and will now look to get in amongst the elite, while the Boston Celtics will want to reach the NBA finals.
