Phoenix Suns merchandise, and more specifically Devin Booker jerseys, have skyrocketed in sales during the second half of the NBA season.

From March 11 through July 13, the Suns climbed 16 spots from the first half of the NBA season to finish third in terms of best-selling team merchandise. Phoenix merchandise trailed only the Los Angeles Lakers and Brooklyn Nets in sales for the second half of the year.

The popularity of Suns items has been bolstered by Booker, who closed the 2020-21 season at sixth in sales. That was 12 spots up from his jersey sales this year before mid-March.

In order, the Lakers’ LeBron James, the Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Nets’ Kevin Durant, the Mavericks’ Luka Doncic and the Celtics’ Jayson Tatum outsold Booker.

Those numbers were based on sales figures from NBAStore.com.
