Devin Booker will miss at least one week with a right hip strain, while Haywood Highsmith continues rehab from knee surgery and will be re-evaluated in 2–3 weeks. The Suns announced the timetable before facing Orlando, adding to a season where injuries have repeatedly interrupted continuity. Booker has been producing at an All-Star level but recently also missed time with an ankle issue.

Booker will be sidelined for at least a week after spraining his right ankle against Atlanta and will be re-evaluated in one week. The injury occurred late in the third quarter after he stepped on Onyeka Okongwu’s foot. Jalen Green also felt right hamstring tightness again in the same game, with the team hoping it is not long-term.

Booker suffered a painful right ankle roll late in the third quarter after landing on Okongwu’s foot, while Green was removed early as a precaution due to tightness in just his second game back from a long hamstring absence. Booker walked off under his own power but was clearly limited; the Suns plan full assessment after returning to Phoenix. Coaches framed Green’s exit as preventative, given his recent recovery and heavy rehab workload.

The retooled Phoenix Suns have defied gloomy preseason forecasts, starting with a winning record, strong Emirates NBA Cup position and a revived home atmosphere after shedding their expensive star core and embracing a hard-working, underdog identity under new coach Jordan Ott. With Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal gone, Phoenix has leaned on Devin Booker’s leadership, Dillon Brooks’ disruptive defense and scoring, and breakout guard Collin Gillespie, who hit a game-winner against Minnesota. Owner Mat Ishbia’s second roster overhaul is suddenly paying off, turning an expected bridge year into early optimism.

In his second Suns game, Green pulled up on a drive and left with hamstring aggravation; he did not return. After missing eight games from a preseason strain, he’d just debuted with 29 points before the setback. Phoenix’s guard rotation tilts back to Booker/Beal handling with staggered minutes and more usage for secondary wings. Medical staff will prioritise full clearance before re-entry, given prior recurrence risk; timelines remain day-to-day pending response.

Bleacher Report Floats Blockbuster Booker-to-Sixers Trade

Devin Booker (Phoenix Suns), Paul George (Philadelphia 76ers)
October 2025

Bleacher Report trade idea proposes a superstar swap, sending Devin Booker to the 76ers in exchange for Paul George, rookie guard Jared McCain, and three unprotected first-round picks (2028, 2029, 2031).
The move would create a Joel Embiid–Tyrese Maxey–Booker trio in Philadelphia, instantly elevating their contender status. Phoenix, meanwhile, would secure George as its primary option while acquiring a massive draft haul to rebuild a roster thin on future assets.
