Key Player - Devin Booker
Devin Booker has played with extreme consistency this season. He has averaged 25.7 PPG on 45.6% shooting from the field. Booker has looked even better in the last five games, averaging 30.2 PPG. He already has four games in February where he has scored more than 30 points.
The youngster will be hoping to repeat his exploits from the previous game and put on another big performance at home. Although he will be up against some pretty tough defense from the Bucks, the likes of point guard Paul will see that Booker has the necessary help to thrive.
While the Suns as a whole will also be looking to exploit any weaknesses the Bucks display during the game.
