Devin Booker’s maternal grandfather was from Mexico. He was raised by his Puerto Rican-Mexican mother, while his father, who is Black, pursued a basketball career internationally. Booker, who was just named to the USA Olympic team, is 24 years old and has been one of the marquee stars of the NBA playoffs this season. He dates celebrities and will probably be one of the most sought-after NBA stars for endorsements and commercials. I’m a fan of Devin Booker. I like his game and he seems to have a Kobe Bryant- like work ethic. Aesthetically, he also resembles Bryant, with a swagger to match. I predict that the Suns will win the NBA championship this year, and Devin Booker will be the first Latino-American to be MVP of the NBA Finals.
