“It is important to go No.1.” That’s Deandre Ayton’s mindset and response when asked during the CBS Radio podcast, Tiki and Tierney, if it is important for him to go No.1 during the 2018 NBA Draft. It would shock many if he did not get chosen at the top based on his skill set and what he accomplished during his only college basketball season.
The last time their was an Arizona Wildcat that got chosen at the No.1 spot in the NBA was…wait, no one has. Ayton can become the first Wildcat to achieve that, another milestone set by the 7-footer.
