The media bias against Devin Booker is kinda crazy. What he’s doing is MVP level and I don’t think I’ve heard anyone in major outlets acknowledge him as a candidate

Suns fans, take your victory laps. We TOLD the world that Devin Booker would be this when he was 18,19. We got made fun of. Look at what he’s turned into.
A freaking superstar.

This game has boosted Booker’s averages this season to 29.0 points, 5.8 assists, and 5.3 rebounds. If he keeps playing like this, it’ll be hard to ignore him in the MVP conversation.
Does Devin Booker Deserve To Be The MVP Frontrunner?
This season is shaping up to have one of the most incredible races to the MVP trophy we have seen in recent memory. Luka Doncic, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jayson Tatum, and Stephen Curry are just a few of the names leading the race right now. However, Booker can’t be ignored anymore.
The Phoenix Suns are the best team in a wildly competitive Western Conference this season and Booker has been the sole leader of the team so far. Chris Paul has been out, Cam Johnson is hurt. and Jae Crowder refuses to play basketball. Booker is truly a special player and has been proving it this season. Whether an MVP award could be in his grasp by the end of the year is something we’ll have to wait and see.
