“It’s cloudy right now, to tell you the truth. I don’t know what is in between the lines. We have to figure it out before the first jump ball. This is media day. We just have to lock in more. Just block out all the noise,” #Suns @Deandre Ayton to @andscape bit.ly/3LOoIQv – 5:17 PM

Watching the Pacers pursue Deandre Ayton, Myles Turner is more motivated than ever.
“I don’t think I’ve scratched the surface of my potential.”
However long Turner remains in Indiana, his mission is to capitalize on a contract year (via @basketbllnews): basketballnews.com/stories/myles-… – 12:01 PM

More on this storyline
Gerald Bourguet: Monty Williams said he hasn’t talked to a bunch of the guys over the summer because he felt they needed a break from him and the gym after G7. Asked if he sees this being a lingering issue with Deandre Ayton, he said, “Not at all.” -via Twitter @GeraldBourguet / September 27, 2022
Duane Rankin: Deandre Ayton said he and Monty Williams haven’t spoken since Game 7 when he and Williams had a verbal exchange on the bench. #Suns -via Twitter @DuaneRankin / September 27, 2022
Kellan Olson: Ayton was asked if he is happy here and he said “Yeah, I’m alright. When I’m inbetween those lines now I just work. I’m 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, man.” -via Twitter @KellanOlson / September 27, 2022
