Recap
Cameron Payne entered the 2020/2021 season as a question mark, having been with the Phoenix Suns for only the eight bubble games in his return to the NBA following a sojourn in China and the G-League. Though Payne played excellently in the bubble, averaging 11 points 3 assists and 4 rebounds in just about 23 minutes per game with a video game-like 15/29 shooting from downtown, it was not clear how good he might prove to be under regular conditions.
