Frank Vogel Wants To Take Deandre Ayton Back To All-Star Level
2 years agoPhoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton is highly regarded by new head coach Frank Vogel, who looks forward to working with him and helping Ayton to become one of the best big men in the NBA. "There's still areas that he can grow offensively, but I'm intent on really connecting with him and restoring him to an All-Star level player," said Vogel this week. Ayton has averaged a double-double in each of his five seasons in the league, but his confidence looked shot in this year's playoffs and he struggled to be effective. The lackluster performances from the former first-overall pick have led to Ayton being linked with a trade elsewhere, but it looks like Vogel won't mind if he sticks around.
