A lot of the talk about Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton has been about his point and rebound totals. The season started off with a lot of frustration, but that seems to have cooled a bit of late as the big man has gone for 20 more more points four times in the past two weeks, and collected 10 or more rebounds the same number of times.
And while some fans will (and arguably should) continue to ask more domination from “Dominayton,” I’m more interested in his defense at the moment. Defense isn’t as easy to quantify as offense, unfortunately.
