The Houston Rockets are reportedly interested in Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker, but how realistic is an acquisition?

Don’t be surprised to see the Suns rising as the second half of the regular season unfolds. They have all the pieces to be much better than what their current record indicates.

There is still time before the NBA trade deadline for the Rockets to go all in on a move that could deliver them a title.

Before the Suns game on Monday, Devin Booker had a full-circle moment with USA Basketball team director, Grant Hill.

Booker notched 26 points (9-21 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, eight assists and one steal across 39 minutes during Monday's 111-109 victory over the Clippers. Booker had a strong showing once again and continues to put up excellent scoring numbers on a steady basis as one of the Suns' go-to options on offense.

For clarity, the Suns would send Booker to the Pistons for Jaden Ivey, Ausur Thompson, Isaiah Stewart, Tim Hardaway Jr, a 2026 first-round pick, and a 2028 first-round pick in Alamedad’s trade proposal.

PHOENIX (AP) — Devin Booker scored 26 points, Kevin Durant added 24 and the surging Phoenix Suns survived a late scare for a 111-109 win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night.

The Knicks have won five in a row including wins over teams like the Nuggets, Grizzlies, and Kings who have all been surging. New York is sitting at No. 3 in the East and is just a game back of the Celtics for the No. 2 seed. The Knicks are jelling at the right time as they continue to move forward with their season.

These were my selections Monday, when I was musing about potential All-Star reserve selections in NBA Rewind: The toughest snubs for me in the East were LaMelo Ball, the unhealthy forwards from the Magic and either Nikola Vučević or Jarrett Allen for a frontcourt spot.

That’s because the Spurs — reportedly Fox’s preferred trade destination — currently have nine tradeable first-round picks that they can include in a deal to the Heat’s one tradeable first-round selection. San Antonio also has young talent such as Keldon Johnson, Devin Vassell and others who it can add to any trade package for Fox.
