Thank you to the Suns for drafting me and believing in me. I look forward to the future & pursuing a title as a Sun. pic.twitter.com/AHRaraPww6

Terms were not released, but Yahoo! Sports reported that the extension is worth a maximum $158 million over five seasons.
Booker, 21, has improved steadily since the Suns selected him 13th overall in the 2015 draft. He averaged a career-high 24.9 points last season, his third with the Suns.
