Per AZ Central, You averaged 10 shot attempts a game, but shot 62.6% from the field. Do you see more FGAs for you this year? Deandre Ayton: “Most definitely. If I can’t see it, someone else is going to see it because that is a must. Giving me the ball is a must. Feeding me is a must. Say I shoot 70% in this league. I might shoot 70%. In the end, it’s about I’m holding my end of the bargain. Consistency, every night. I’m so hard on myself, I’m just happy that I finally got to show my ability to cover the big man position in this league.

Deandre Ayton: “Now I can do what the hell I want. You can’t tell me s–t. You can’t tell me how to play this game because I’ve already done it, and now I’m going to do what I want. Everybody else is getting their praises when they do what they want to do. I just did it the hard way. I had to show y’all. I was it, but y’all still wanted me to show y’all because y’all thought I wasn’t it. Now that I’ve proven myself as a big man, that I hate being, I’m going to show you why I am and who I am. I’ve put in so much work behind that.”
