Of course, it doesn’t hurt that he is handsome and dates a supermodel. The Suns guard has a hefty social media following, livestreaming video games and traveling with his girlfriend, Kendall Jenner. Architectural Digest recently did a feature on his stylish digs near the Phoenix Mountains Preserve, while Forbes spotlighted his knack for investing. As baller as his life may seen, Booker plays it down. “Honestly, I’m a homebody in a lot of ways. I love spending time with my dog Haven or my teammates at my house and I have great views of the mountain,” he said. Book has been blessed. But even though the 25 year old can now afford to collect classic kicks (his sneaker closet was featured in that AD story) and classic cars (including his favorite, the ’59 Impala ragtop he named Pretty Penny), family comes first. “They’ve all moved here. His mom, his dad, his brother — they’re all here. I think that ties into why he’s so charitable, because of how he was raised,” Krahenbuhl said. Indeed, Book’s brother Davon serves on the board of Phoenix Suns Charities and helps to represent Devin’s interest. “I love that my brother represents my community contribution,” Booker said. “Being able to give back is what we get most excited about as a family.” Get on the Team!

And so, Book continues to carry some heavy weights lightly, leading his team, supporting his family, and giving to the community like the All-Star he was born to be. “It’s what makes me proud to use my platform, and one of the best things about being an NBA player,” he said .
