This postseason, Devin Booker has accomplished something that hadn't been done since Michael Jordan, three decades ago. And he's just getting started.

According to ESPN Stats & Info, by scoring 295 points through his first eight postseason games this year, Devin Booker tied a mark Michael Jordan set back in 1990. Booker then went out and put 36 points on 77 percent shooting from the floor in his ninth game, a 129-124, series-tying win over the Nuggets. Booker has been exceptional this post-season, putting up points in bunches. With Chris Paul out and the supporting cast struggling, Booker and Kevin Durant are the only reason the Suns are still in their series against the Nuggets.

Phoenix has been missing depth in their post-season run so far and Booker has made up for this weakness. The altitude in Denver and the Suns' lack of depth may lead to their ultimate demise but Booker and Durant have to be commended for their scoring outbursts this post-season.

Can Devin Booker keep carrying this load?

The Suns will have a hard time going further this round in the playoff due to their lack of depth. While it might be an outrageous statement to doubt Durant and Booker, this is a fair statement to make about this Suns' team right now. Besides Durant and Booker, the rest of the roster has combined for just 42.5 points per game in this series, shooting 44.0 percent from the field and 27.2 percent from beyond the arc.

Considering the high altitude and the high amount of minutes both stars have played so far, asking them to keep carrying the load is a tall order.
