Ayton suffered his injury in Game 5 in the first half when he collided with Bruce Brown. After the game, Ayton said that he was fine when he continued to play through it throughout the game on Tuesday night.
Now with him out of tonight’s game, I fully expect the Suns to start a guy like Bismack Biymobo in a must-win game 6. Biyombo brings quality rim protection as well as defense which can make life a little tougher for Nikola Jokic.
Game 6 is tonight at 7 PM at the Footprint Center. Let’s see if the Suns can shock the world with a win on their homecourt tonight.
