Deandre Ayton doesn't feel valued by the Suns, might leave the team this summer

2022-05-17

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.
