Dominant debut for No. 1 pick Ayton in Suns & # 039; exhibition game
Deandre Ayton could be the next great man in the NBA in the middle.
The No. 1 pick had a dominant debut on Monday night, finishing with 24 points, 10 rebounds and three blocked shots in the Phoenix Suns 106-102 loss to the Sacramento Kings.
The opener of the exhibition for both teams presented the first two elections in the last draft. Duke's Marvin Bagley III left the Sacramento bench for seven points in 25 minutes.
Ayton, Bagley's only high school teammate, seems a little more prepared for the NBA. The former Arizona star jumped high for alley-oop and showed a good touch with a hook, finishing 9-for-16 from the floor and 6-for-8 from the free throw line.
Joel Embiid, perhaps the current great man in the league, faced Monday another center among the 10 best in the draft, the Mo Bamba of Orlando. Embiid kept Philadelphia undefeated with 21 points in the 76ers' final game before heading to China for a couple of games against Dallas.
