The Thunder quickly scored a transition dunk with Booker hobbled on the other end, and the Suns called timeout to get Booker out of the game with 9:16 left in the period.
Grayson Allen entered for Booker.
With 6:56 left, Booker checked back into the game. Booker’s mobility will be something to watch moving forward.
Booker scored 11 points with four assists before the taking the tumble, and he hit back-to-back shots after re-entering.
He finished with 16 points in 39 minutes in a 121-109 loss that resulted in the Thunder taking a 3-0 series lead.
