The Phoenix Suns matched the Indiana Pacers $133 million, four-year offer to Deandre Ayton Thursday to keep the center, according to media reports.

Ayton, who was the Number 1 pick in the 2018 draft,  was eligible to get an extension from Phoenix last summer. He didn’t get one, and became a restricted free agent this summer, which meant the Suns had the chance to match any offers, which they quickly did after the Pacers’ offer.
