Today, Sun boss Ishbiya attended a press conference.

Speaking of Booker, Ishbiya commented: "He is the cornerstone of the team and one of the greatest players in the history of the Suns. He is willing to stay here, just as we want him to stay, and this is a wonderful partnership. He is at the heart of us, the soul of leading the team to compete for the championship. This team belongs to him, and it is very clear and there is no doubt. Devin is the ultimate winner, and he will prove it to everyone this year. I am very lucky to have a team with Devin Booker as the core. Fans love him, and he is everything in the community. How can we not have Devin Booker?" In the offseason, Booker renewed his contract with the Suns in advance for two years of $145 million.
