Center for the Phoenix Suns, Deandre Ayton, is a player in high-demand at the moment, with the Indiana Pacers offering him a 4-year $133 million contract, which has now been set as the largest restricted agent 4-year offer in NBA history. Since Ayton is not a free agent, his current team is allowed to match any offers he receives— and the Suns matched the Pacers’s $133 million instantly. The Pacers offered this large contract to Deandre Ayton only yesterday, giving the Suns until Saturday night to make a decision to either keep or trade Ayton. However, sports reporter Shams Charania tweeted that “The Suns made clear throughout free agency that the franchise intended to bring Ayton back – and were committed to spend in order to continue competing for a title around All-NBA star Devin Booker, Chris Paul and Ayton.”
