Phoenix Suns: Time for Aron Baynes to return to early season glory

When Deandre Ayton found himself suspended after just one (very solid) game into the 2019-2020 Phoenix Suns season, all eyes turned to the bearded Australian beast, Aron Baynes to fill the void at the center position.

While Ayton was out (including the five games he missed due to turning his ankle in his first game back), Baynes posted quality numbers per game: 13.
