Devin Booker goes overlooked by NBA GMs in recent survey
Summary

In the latest NBA survey of general managers, Devin Booker of the Phoenix Suns did not receive a vote for the best shooting guard for the second consecutive year. This follows a decline from previous seasons, where he was often a top candidate. While Suns coach Jordan Ott received recognition for best offensive and defensive schemes, the lack of votes for Booker highlights a shift in perception among GMs. Meanwhile, Anthony Edwards of the Minnesota Timberwolves continues to lead in the voting for the top shooting guard. Booker averaged 26.1 points and six assists last season, but his facilitator role may have impacted his recognition among GMs.
