Every clutch play Luka Doncic made this season, especially in the NBA restart in Orlando, made a considerable amount of Phoenix Suns fans further question their franchise selecting Deandre Ayton over the Mavericks' star.
The Suns passed on the point guard from Slovenia to take the one-and-done All-American out of Arizona with the top pick in the 2018 draft. Ayton’s averaged a double-double in his two NBA seasons, but hasn’t become an All-Star, first-team All-NBA pick or led his team to the playoffs like Doncic has in Dallas.
Getting suspended for 25 games after testing positive for a diuretic, battling injuries and missing a COVID-19 testing window in the bubble hasn’t helped Ayton’s status to some.
