Devin Booker calls out the Thunder’s “hidden advantage,” saying OKC’s grab-and-hold defense swung their tight matchup on Nov. 28.

Devin Booker has been ruled out for the Phoenix Suns' Dec. 10 NBA Cup game at defending NBA champion Oklahoma City with a groin injury.

PHOENIX -- After being upgraded to questionable on yesterday's injury report, the Phoenix Suns have made the final decision on star guard Devin Booker's status for tonight's NBA Cup quarterfinal matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Suns star Devin Booker will be back by Sunday or the team's next game on Dec. 18, Arizona Sports' John Gambadoro reported on Thursday.

The upstart Phoenix Suns have been surprisingly competent in the early stages of this NBA season. At the time of this writing, they're the No. 7 seed in the Western Conference and can boast some impressive wins over the San Antonio Spurs, Minnesota Timberwolves (twice), and Los Angeles Lakers.

Booker's missed the last three games due to a groin injury and was set to be re-evaluated on Wednesday. He was officially marked as questionable before the Suns ruled him out ahead of their eventual blowout loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in NBA Cup action.

After the Thunder barely escaped the Suns in their West Group A matchup, Booker revealed that the 'secret is out' in terms of how OKC plays defense. He said their physical brand of defense has helped them speed up opponents in their decisions. That segues to a bunch of turnovers.
