It was fitting that Hill was gifting Durant and Booker with their Olympic rings after the team won gold at the Paris Olympics in August. Hill subtly dropped a hint that he wants them to return to the team in 2028. "Make sure you guys answer your phone in four years," Hill said to the Suns duo.

Before the Suns game on Monday, Devin Booker had a full-circle moment with USA Basketball team director, Grant Hill.

Make sure you guys answer your phone in 4 years [for Team USA at the 2028 Olympics]!” Kevin Durant & Devin Booker: “I’m there!”

PHOENIX (AP) — Devin Booker scored 26 points, Kevin Durant added 24 and the surging Phoenix Suns survived a late scare for a 111-109 win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night.

The Phoenix Suns (23-21) host the Los Angeles Clippers (26-19) on Monday, airing on Arizona's Family (Ch. 3 TV) and NBA TV at 7:30 p.m. This is the Suns' second game of a three-game homestand and the third of a four-game Pacific Division season series.

After the game, the game-high scorer Devin Booker had some thoughts to share on his team going forward. "We wouldn't put a limit to what we gotta do, but obviously a championship's the goal," Booker said.
