PHOENIX — Looks like Devin Booker will be out for the next few weeks with an injury.

The Phoenix Suns announced Wednesday that Booker sustained a left groin strain and will be re-evaluated in four weeks.

Booker was previously hampered with a lingering hamstring injury earlier this season but his latest injury will cause him to miss significant time heading into the All-Star break.

With their primary scoring option out for extended time, expect the Suns to shuffle their roster some to try and keep the team afloat while Booker recovers. The team has shown they have to firepower to put up big offensive numbers after a win over Memphis on Tuesday.

This is a developing story. More information will be provided as it becomes available.
