Deandre Ayton Returns With A Nice Double-Double
3 years agoPhoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton returned from a two-game absence with a 28-point, 13-rebound double-double on Tuesday, shooting 12-for-17 from the field in an overtime win against Portland. He collected one assist and two steals as well with three turnovers. JaVale McGee went back to the bench and earned only eight minutes of action. Portland is getting crushed by centers this season, so this was a very good comeback spot for Ayton. The next matchup is also a favorable one for the big guy, as Phoenix hosts the Wizards, who have allowed the third-most points in the league to centers this season.
