Another question, deserving ba si Ayton ng max contract? o lumaki na din ulo nya demanding a max contract?

In his mind he is deserving of the max rookie extension. Trae, Luka etc got theirs. Umabot naman sa Finals ang PHO partly because of the consistent play ni Ayton. Reaching the Finals is something that Trae and Luka fell short in accomplishing in the same time frame but syempre due to a lot of other factors. Unfortunately PHO management does not share the same sentiment. He will enter RFA after this season.
They have so much invested in CP3, Booker, Shamet and Mikal Bridges. Bridges was the one who got the extension for 90M/4 years. Shamet reportedly was signed for 40M/ 4 years.
Ayton is reportedly asking for 170M/5 years.
For me mali ang Phoenix dyan. Inuna dapat si Ayton sa extension after locking up CP3. Its so difficult to find a player with his skillset and size. Maybe they still believe that their future is in small ball.
