Is Devin Booker interested in leaving the Phoenix Suns for the New York Knicks?
That’s the gossip ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith is currently hearing – but according to a source linked to Booker’s camp, that may not be in the Phoenix star’s plans after all.
Earlier today, Smith started the Booker-to-New York chatter on First Take by saying, “the scuttlebutt in the NBA circles is that brother wants to be in New York.”

It seems Smith may need to check his sources.
Per Gerald Bourguet of PHNX Sports , those rumors are “unequivocally false.”
“But beyond that, a source from Devin Booker’s camp who’s intimately familiar with the situation told PHNX Sports that these rumors are unequivocally false,” Bourguet writes.
Bourguet continued.
“However, the Knicks’ interest in Devin Booker is one-sided, and the source was adamant about squashing this latest, unfounded rumor,” Bourguet wrote.
