Devin Booker is utterly impressed with how the Phoenix Suns have reduced the food menu prices for the upcoming season. With the NBA rating going down and empty seats becoming a regularity, such a move is a welcome one. Suns’ owner Matt Ishbia announced a special menu where food prices would remain just $2. That includes hotdogs, fountain sodas, water, popcorn, and more.
Such a bold initiative has left the Suns’ star, Devin Booker, mightily pleased. “Yeah, that’s sick. That’s special, man. Mat’s doing some incredible things. I know as a spectator, that’s a big change. I always hear about concession prices, so that’s a big move by him that I found out with you guys,” said Booker. And he is not wrong. The menu dropped by the Suns is the most affordable menu in the NBA at present.

For perspective, hot dogs at an NBA game typically range from $7 to $10. On the contrary, soda bottles and even water can burn a hole in the pocket by $6-9. Now, while this is an utterly bright proposition, Devin Booker himself is picking up quite the praises.
Former NBA Star Reflects On Devin Booker’s Chances
Former NBA All-Star Kenyon Martin recently appeared in an episode of the ‘Gil’s Arena’. During the course of their discussion, Martin heaped praises on Devin Booker for being a standout performer. Unfortunately, despite playing alongside Bradley Beal and Kevin Durant, Booker has yet to win an NBA championship. However, as per Martin, there was a way the Suns could clinch one.

“Go get you a Ben Simmons,” said Martin. He further opined that Simmons is a terrific passer. Moreover, he has a natural passing game that makes the entire play of the team pretty much fluid. Add to that Kevin Durant and Devin Booker. Suddenly, the Suns are looking like a champion outfit. Thus, with good things slated to happen next year, it remains to be seen whether the Phoenix Suns can get a championship run or not.
