Video: Devin Booker Gifts Shoes to Fan Wearing Suns Jersey in Paris During Olympics
August 1, 2024
Devin Booker is making his fans happy in France.
The Phoenix Suns star ran into a fan who happened to be wearing his jersey in the streets of Paris and made his day, taking a picture with him and even gifting him a pair of shoes. Booker's comments also seemed to indicate that the shoes he gave the fan are somewhat exclusive.
"Nobody got them," he said. "You can fly now."
To Suns fans' delight, Booker also snubbed the fan wearing a Los Angeles Lakers jersey to talk to the person rocking his jersey.
Whether the person was a die-hard Booker fan before the interaction is unclear, but Booker certainly made a fan for life on Thursday. Perhaps that same fan will be in attendance for Team USA's final group stage game against Puerto Rico on Saturday.
After struggling in exhibition games leading up to the Olympics, the United States has coasted in its first two Olympic matchups, beating Serbia 110-84 before downing South Sudan 103-86 on Wednesday.
Booker put up 12 points, five assists and a pair of steals against Serbia and notched 10 points, six assists and a steal against South Sudan.
