Marquese Chriss is taking the Devin Booker hype too far

Sep 20, 2016, 8:37 PM | Updated: 11:24 pm

The hype is real when it comes to Suns guard Devin Booker.

LeBron James likes him, so does Drake.

We here at Arizona Sports like him a lot, too.

But at some point, everyone needs to let the 19-year-old figure it out on his own timeframe. Phoenix rookie Marquese Chriss reminded us as much Tuesday when some get-to-know-him form got out on the interwebs.

Let’s break this down one item at a time.

— His #Bounceteam hashtag makes sense because Chriss does this.

— His hidden talent? Not so hidden.

— Chriss is most looking forward to trying to make the playoffs. Master Yoda would say to “do or do not, there is no try,” but we’ll forgive him.

— He would be an electrical engineer had it not been for his NBA talents. That’s admirable.

— Favorite pregame music. We’re also fans of Fetty.

— Then we get to the doozy. Chriss’ Mt. Rushmore is Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, LeBron James and 19-year-old Devin Booker.

Like we said, we need to cool the Booker hype just a tad.
