Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton says he and Coach Monty Williams haven’t spoken to each other since their playoff loss to the Dallas Mavericks.
“I haven’t spoke to Monty,” Ayton said during the first day of practice Tuesday. “No, I haven’t spoken to him at all. Ever since the game.”
“I’m alright. When I’m in between those lines, I just work. I am not playing for myself. I have an organization across my chest and a name on my back I have to represent. I’m just here to work.” The Suns matched an officer sheet from the Indiana Pacers over the offseason, keeping Ayton with the Suns on a four-year, $133 million contract.
The Ayton/Monty discussion is far from the only drama surrounding the Suns entering training camp. Suns owner Robert Sarver announced earlier this month that he is starting the process of trying to sell both the Suns and Phoenix Mercury. The move comes about two weeks after the NBA announced a one-year suspension for Sarver after a lengthy investigation into alleged misconduct.
