Booker scored 31 points with 10 assists before leaving the game in obvious pain.
He will reportedly have X-rays on his ribs and hip areas to determine the exact injury.

Booker now has 16 games with at least 30 points this season, but the Suns are only 8-8 in those games. After being snubbed from this year's All-Star game, Booker moved to point guard, leading the Suns' young offensive attack. A natural shooter, Booker has dealt with the switch well, but the Suns are just 3-9 this month.
Should Booker miss extended time, Tyler Ulis would see an uptick in minutes.
