SG Devin Booker $24M, (2022-23)

Fantraxed.

Picks and spreadsheet will reflect once I do full board update. Note though: Booker can not have more than 50% ($12m paid) so let me know if this is fine or if you have any further adjustment @Brent @jschwab

Also everyone on active roster, let me know otherwise.

$12M is good with me.
