Booker was called for two technical fouls with 6:36 remaining in the first quarter, triggering an automatic ejection. Suns head coach Frank Vogel was also called for a technical foul.
The quick ejection of Booker led to “ref you suck” chants from the home crowd in Phoenix.

Booker had seven points in five minutes of action and barely had time to break a sweat. The Suns still were able to build a sizable lead against the 8-45 pistons even without one of their stars. Maybe the officials were just trying to give Detroit a chance.
