His girlfriend, Kendall Jenner was in attendance and shared videos of her view throughout the night on Instagram.
The night took a turn for the worse for Booker in the third, as he injured his hamstring. His injuries prevented him from being able to return to action.
The Suns went on to lose without the star, 125-114.
Booker's interaction with the baby has since become a viral meme with many making fun at the situation.
"How the baby Devin Booker dapped up walking into preschool tomorrow," read one tweet.
