The Phoenix Suns continue to draw eyes around the league as superstar Devin Booker finished 13th in NBA jersey sales for the 2021-22 season.

With Booker finishing 13th for individual sales, the Suns ranked eighth as a team across the league, one spot ahead of the New York Knicks.

Last year, Booker finished sixth individually and the Suns came in third as a team.

Booker finished as the seventh-most sold jersey for guards but was ahead of Denver Nuggets big man and MVP frontrunner Nikola Jokic, who finished 15th.

This year, the league was once again led by Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James, followed by Philadelphia 76ers’ James Harden, Golden State Warriors’ Stephen Curry, Brooklyn Nets’ Kevin Durant and Boston Celtics’ Jayson Tatum.

The top five for team jersey sales were led by the Lakers, 76ers, Warriors, Chicago Bulls and Nets.

Of the top 15 sold jerseys, 14 of the 15 players all remain in the NBA playoffs, with Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball finishing 14th.

The Suns will travel to New Orleans to battle the Pelicans at 7 p.m. Catch all the action on 98.7 FM Arizona’s Sports Station.
