Devin Booker responds to viral video claiming Bronny James diss
Devin Booker seems to have had it with fans spreading misinformation about him. D Book responded on X to fans who spread a post which claimed to show the Suns All-Star taking a shot at Lakers rookie Bronny James. Booker clapped back at the 50k people who had liked a post which seemed to show Booker talking about James Jr.
In the video, Devin Booker is seen talking to a teammate after Bronny James misses a free throw. As the original tweet suggests, Booker seems to say, “he’s just no good,” supposedly in reference to James. Booker clapped back at fans who spread the video with comment reading, “50k of yall need help.”

The original post went viral as many sports fans were heavily criticising Bronny James’ lacklustre play during the preseason. However, that didn’t last long, as James Jr. had his breakout moment in the league earlier this week with a 17-point outburst against the Golden State Warriors.
As for Devin Booker, the Suns star isn’t the only one affected by the misinformation being spread through viral lip-syncing clips. Earlier this year, during the Summer League, Celtics Star Jaylen Brown was also caught dissing Bronny James in a lip-syncing clip. Brown, too, had dispelled any rumors about his actions towards the Lakers rookie, but that didn’t stop people from making the incident go viral.

As the Suns’ stars soaked in the wild atmosphere of the game, mayhem ensued on the field. With the Longhorns down by 23 points, the raucous home crowd started spewing water bottles onto the field after a controversial penalty against the ‘Horns. Booker, a former Wildcat, was seated alongside Durant, who is a former Longhorn himself. The Longhorns would eventually go on to lose 15-30 against the Bulldogs.
As for the duo of Devin Booker and KD, the two will be headed to Los Angeles soon, as the Phoenix Suns are set to kick off their regular season against the LA Clippers at the brand-new Intuit Dome.
