The Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton says he hasn't spoken with head coach Monty Williams since the Suns were eliminated in a Game 7 loss to the Dallas Mavericks in May. The Suns were stunned 123-90 in that Game 7 loss, while Ayton was benched for most of the second half and played only 17 minutes.
The Phoenix Suns officially re-signed center Deandre Ayton. The 23-year-old signed to a 4-year $133 million extension after the Indiana Pacers presented such an offer and the Suns matched it.
The former no. 1 overall pick is staying in Phoenix. Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton had previously agreed to a 4-year $133 million deal with the Indiana Pacers. Due to the fact that the player did not receive his rookie extension last year, he was a restricted free agent, meaning, the Suns had the ability to match any offer that came for Ayton.
Restricted free agent Deandre Ayton has agreed to a four-year, $133M maximum offer sheet with the Indiana Pacers, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. The Phoenix Suns have 48 hours to match the largest offer sheet in NBA history and keep Ayton -- or let him go to the Pacers for nothing in return, via the report.
It's gonna be an interesting summer for Phoenix Suns big man Deandre Ayton. After failing to reach an agreement with the Suns on a contract extension last summer, Ayton will become a restricted free agent this offseason and his future might be away from Phoenix after all.
According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, Ayton didn't feel valued enough by the Suns last summer, when the franchise decided to not offer him a max contract extension. Ayton didn't want to move from the max offer request so the two sides, in the end, decided to wait for the restricted free agency.
Portland Trail Blazers and San Antonio Spurs are two teams mentioned by Wojnarowski with enough cap space to make a suitable offer for Ayton when the free agency will begin.
But even teams without enough cap space available to sign Ayton right away are studying sign & trade possibilities that might be intriguing for the Suns if the franchise will decide to move away from Ayton and they would want to be compensated with some future assets.
The big man averaged 17.2 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game this season with the Suns.
