Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker will be out at least one week due to a right ankle sprain, the team announced Sunday, according to Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic.

He'll miss a minimum of four games under the timeline provided.

Booker sustained the injury during the third quarter of Friday's loss to the Atlanta Hawks. The four-time All-Star was making his way upcourt when he inadvertently stepped on the foot of Hawks center Onyeka Okongwu.

Booker limped off the court and left the arena on crutches, according to Rankin.

Fellow Suns guard Jalen Green injured his right hamstring in the same game. He was previously listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Miami Heat before being ruled out.

Booker ranks 14th in scoring in the Association (25.4 points per game). He's also averaging 6.2 assists and 4.0 rebounds across 41 appearances this season.

Phoenix (27-18) sits sixth in the Western Conference entering play Sunday.
