Devin Booker wants to save Hooters. <\/p>\n
The Phoenix Suns guard is pleading for Hooters not to go in wake of the news that the iconic restaurant chain may be heading for bankruptcy.<\/p>\n
The comments came just one day after Bloomberg reported that Hooters of America is negotiating with creditors to restructure its $300 million debt through a Chapter 11 filing.<\/p>\n
Following a 121-117 win against the Chicago Bulls \u2014 where Booker contributed 29 points, eight assists, and two steals \u2014 Booker took to X and posted a heartfelt plea: \u201cPlz don\u2019t go Hooters.\u201d<\/p>\n
With his season averages at 26 points and 6.7 assists, Booker\u2019s message resonated with many who remember his early days.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s apparently always been a fan of the famed chain restaurant. <\/p>\n
Booker and Hooters have a connection dating back to at least May 9, 2012, when he tweeted, \u201cI\u2019m thinking hooters tonight with the fellas.\u201d<\/p>\n
That post predated his time with the Suns or even the Kentucky Wildcats, with whom he played from 2014-15 prior to his rookie season in the NBA. <\/p>\n
Booker\u2019s love for Hooters also doesn\u2019t leave him on an island.<\/p>\n
Influencer Paige Spiranac tweeted, \u201cNot on my watch,\u201d when confronted with the reports of Hooters\u2019 possibly pending demise, or at least downsizing. <\/p>\n
Although the potential bankruptcy of Hooters has raised concerns, the chain isn\u2019t necessarily going under for good at the moment. <\/p>\n
Last year, around 40 locations closed due to underperformance, but none of those were in Arizona, and Hooters currently operates approximately 300 restaurants worldwide. <\/p>\n
According to Bloomberg, the closures are part of a strategic effort to reduce debt and adapt to shifts in the restaurant market.<\/p>\n
As for Booker, he has more important things to worry about on the court. <\/p>\n
His Suns are 27-29 and currently 11th in the Western Conference, meaning they\u2019d be out of the Play-In if the season ended today. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
