There has been a lot of smoke and mirrors this offseason regarding Ayton in trade rumors and where he’ll land next season. This report makes sense as NBA insider Shams Charania reported on the Pat McAfee show that the Suns were getting calls about Ayton shortly after the Bradley Beal trade.

Another guy by the name of Flex that’s an insider for the Suns reported about the likelihood of two teams to keep an eye on regarding Ayton and that was the Atlanta Hawks and you guessed it the Boston Celtics.
The Suns are indeed having conversations with several teams regarding Deandre Ayton! Boston and Atlanta are two teams I'm told to keep an eye on regarding Ayton with the Suns looking to build depth after acquiring Bradley Beal from Washington.

These reports won’t go away anytime soon and we’ll see if anything materializes this offseason regarding Ayton.
