Phoenix Suns center and former Arizona Wildcat Deandre Ayton will return from his 25-game suspension Tuesday but before that he sat down with FOX Sports Arizona to publicly address the situation for the first time.
To give you a refresher, Ayton was suspended on Oct. 24 for violating the terms of the NBA/NBPA Anti-Drug Program by testing positive for a diuretic. The former No. 1 overall pick said he was “really shocked and embarrassed” when the NBA called to deliver the news.
“But most of all I just know I disappointed everybody that’s in my circle,” he said.
