The matchup between Bam Adebayo and Anthony Davis in the 2020 NBA Finals tells us two different stories about Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton and his future in the league.
Both the Miami Heat and Los Angeles Lakers got to the Finals largely by downsizing, with Adebayo sliding to center in place of Meyers Leonard and Davis doing the same for much of the playoffs against P.J. Tucker and Nikola Jokic in back-to-back rounds. The two star bigs in the Finals are both 6-10 or so and supremely agile and skilled, but their styles and strengths are quite different.
