Ayton mustered 19 points (9-13 FG, 1-3 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and one block across 36 minutes during Wednesday's 105-98 win over the Mavericks.
In Ayton's second game back following a five-game absence due to a leg injury, he posted his fifth straight double-double and led the Suns in rebounding. The fourth-year center has averaged a double-double in every season of his NBA career thus far, and he is on his way to replicating that feat this season. Through eight games, he is averaging 15.8 points and 11.6 boards per contest.
