Bro it was a mystery for some of Suns fans too. I used to think it was an issue with Monty Williams, or maybe even Chris Paul, simply not wanting to go to him in the 2nd half for whatever reason.

Not all of us Suns fans have been rooting for Ayton to fail. I thought he would have a breakout year and average ~22ppg easily. I really thought there was a good chance Ayton would play under Vogel, or once he was traded to Portland I thought he would go to you guys, and with a new coach not have the same issues he had in Phoenix.

Maybe I really was wrong. Maybe Ayton really isn’t asserting himself enough in the 2nd half of games.
