With eight minutes left in the fourth quarter on Thursday, Los Angeles Clippers forward Patrick Patterson is pressed up against Phoenix Suns big man Deandre Ayton’s back, then his front, doing everything he can to prevent the former No. 1 pick from catching the ball in the post. When that doesn’t work, Clippers guard Rajon Rondo pounces from the baseline to try to steal the catch. Ayton pivots away, but he’s frazzled. He passes the ball right into the hands of Paul George, the All-NBA defender roaming the weakside.
It’s a great time to join the Phoenix Suns bandwagon
