Deandre Ayton may be the best player the University of Arizona men’s basketball team has had in its’ history and he displayed glimpses of why on Friday. The seven footer made everything look easy in another installment of the annual Red-Blue game. Jump shots, dunks, rebounds, blocked shots, running, jumping, serving concessions, it seemed like Ayton did it all in front of the sell out crowd in McKale.
Ayton finished with a game-high 21 points on 10-for-14 shooting, including nine rebounds, five of which came on the offensive end. He made seven foot senior Dusan Ristic seem small and has awed his teammates since his arrival on campus.
