For Booker, being a guy that is not in the playing rotation in big games is new for him. He’s an extremely gifted basketball player, but it has been an “adjustment” for Booker to watch the game instead of playing the game.
“I’ve been doing good,” Booker said. “Obviously it’s an adjustment so far, definitely still got a lot of work to do. (I'm) getting used to a lot of things that I haven’t been doing in my life before. So it’s definitely an adjustment, but I’m coming along, just trying to take it day-by-day, not get mad at myself, just kind of trusting the process and trusting the work I put in.”
