After netting 40 points in the Suns’ victory against the Cavs on Wednesday night, Devin Booker stands just one 40+ point game away from shattering a new franchise record.

This season, Booker has achieved the 40+ point mark in 7 games, matching his total from last season along with Tom Chambers‘ record, which stands as the highest in Suns’ history.

The most 40+ point games in a season in franchise history:

Booker has six more games to attempt to break this franchise record. However, one of the Suns’ upcoming games is against the New Orleans Pelicans, a team that Booker has consistently excelled against.

In his last three encounters with New Orleans, Booker has scored at least 50 points each time, extending this streak with a 52-point performance on April 1st in the Suns’ win.

Throughout this season, Booker has maintained an average of 27.6 points per game, just slightly below his career-high of 27.8.
