Devin Booker is having a hard time shooting the ball so far this season, and he thinks it has something to do with the literal ball that he is shooting. The Phoenix Suns star spoke this week on the NBA’s new Wilson basketballs and said that every ball feels different, per Suns writer Kellan Olson. The two-time All-Star Booker has been in a shooting slump to start the season. His 40.5 field-goal percentage and 27.8 three-point percentage are both the lowest marks of his career. Booker’s 21.8 points per game is also the worst since his 2015-16 rookie season. Wilson just replaced Spalding as the producer of official NBA game balls. The league had been using Spalding balls since 1983. That has led to some growing pains for players, and Booker is not the only star who feels it.
