On the year (43 games), Booker is shooting 45.5% from the floor and 31.1% from 3-point land. He’s averaging 25.2 points, four rebounds and 6.3 assists across 33.9 minutes per game.
Green, meanwhile, is coming off his own two-game stretch after missing time with his lingering hamstring injury.
In his return to the court, Green averaged 10 points per game on 35% shooting and 18.2% from long range. He added two rebounds and 3.5 assists across 18.5 minutes per game.
Before Phoenix’s win over the Dallas Mavericks, Green acknowledged he was still searching for normalcy due to the hamstring issue that’s limited him to just seven games played (two starts) this year.
“I feel myself being a little cautious with certain drives that I could have attempted. Just thinking about it, it’s something you don’t want to happen again obviously,” Green told reporters on Monday. “No one wants to be injured.
“There are times where I think about it, ‘Man, I should have drove,’ but I’m hesitant. That’s going to go out the window once I get some games under my belt and becoming unconscious and forget about it.”
