Deandre Ayton not only stood out among his draft class this year, but had one of the most efficient and productive first seasons in NBA history on his way to being named a finalist for Rookie of the Year.
The first overall pick got things rolling the first time he ever stepped onto the court in a Suns uniform. Ayton recorded 19 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists in his Phoenix debut against the Dallas Mavericks. He became the first player to record at least 18-10-6 in an NBA debut since Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in 1969 according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
