Deandre Ayton is already tired of the excuses for the Phoenix Suns' losses

Move on.

Put the last game in the past and get ready for the next one.

Deandre Ayton has picked up that approach from the veterans, but he’s more than frustrated with how his rookie season with the Phoenix Suns has begun.

“I’m tired of talk saying it’s early,” Ayton said. “Saying it’s too early, we’re a young team. I’m tired of that talk. Did in college. People were saying we were too young and da-da-da-da-da. Destroyed all of them. I think I can do it again in the NBA as well."

After being part of the Suns’ 22-point loss to Brooklyn, Ayton sounds determined to raise his level of play for Thursday’s game against the Boston Celtics (6-4).
