Suns' Devin Booker signed an autograph, waved goodbye after getting ejected
Second-year Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker was ejected for the first time in his young career on Wednesday night — and he made sure it was a memorable occasion.
With less than 20 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter and the Suns trailing the Denver Nuggets 120-104, Booker picked up his second technical foul and got tossed. Before he vacated the premises, though, he gave the refs a thumbs-up, waved goodbye to his teammates on the bench, then signed an autograph on his way out for good measure:
Such a kind young man, despite the Booker Ts. Also, I'm going to start calling him "King Booker," for my WWE fans out there.
Booker finished the night with 24 points on 10-for-18 shooting. The Suns fell to 3-9 for the season.
