Suns' Booker exits loss after rolling right ankle

ATLANTA — Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker injured his right ankle Friday night against Atlanta Hawks and limped off the court.

The Suns did not have an update on Booker’s injury after losing 110-103 to the Hawks, but he was seen leaving the locker room on crutches.

«Pretty unlucky,» Suns coach Jordan Ott said of the injury. «We’ll just have to take a look when we get back to Phoenix.»

Booker, a four-time All-Star, went down with five seconds remaining in the third quarter after rolling his ankle on the foot of the Hawks’ Onyeka Okongwu.

Booker was on the floor for several minutes before walking to the training room under his own power — albeit limping and appearing to be in significant pain.

Booker scored 31 points in 28 minutes before the injury. He came in averaging a team-best 25.3 points and 6.3 assists.
