The Phoenix Suns were looking to extend their win streak to five straight games as they tipped off against the Washington Wizards on Saturday night.
Early and often the Suns went to the Big Fella in the paint as Deandre Ayton scored eight points while grabbing six rebounds in just the first quarter. Midway through the second he grabbed his tenth rebound to already notch his 20th double-double of his career. Ayton joined Shaquille O’Neal, Blake Griffin and Emeka Okafor as they only players to record 20 double-doubles in just 33 games played.
The game was tied at halftime as neither team could quite take an advantage.
