Hooters bankrupt: NBA All-Star wants eatery to stay afloat

One NBA All-Star is worried about the Hooters' looming bankruptcy.

Phoenix Suns Guard Devin Booker was posted on X a day after the restaurant chain announced that it could be heading for Chapter 11.

“Plz won't go to @hooters,” Booker tweeted after his victory over the Chicago Bulls on Saturday.

Hooters closed several locations across the country as its business declined. About 40 locations have closed the doors, but there is no place for Booker to be in Arizona.

Bloomberg also reported that the company sold approximately $300 million in asset aid bonds in 2021.
