Deandre Ayton

C, Phoenix Suns

Deandre Ayton played well in 26 minutes against the Hornets on Sunday as he put up 18 points and nine boards on 9-of-15 shooting.

This was Ayton’s second straight game off the bench and we could see him remain in that role if it keeps working for the Suns. He tweaked his left ankle, but he was able to return to action and seemed to be okay.  Ayton is top-40 in per-game value in 9-cat formats and could gradually move up as the season progresses.
