[MacMahon] I did hear some concerns from folks with the Suns about that Ayton trade… and it was about the other guy they gave up in the deal. They loved Toumani Camara. (alien.top)

Is this more of an indictment on Ayton or simply high praise for Camara? The 52nd pick in this year’s draft is coming off an up and down preseason in which he put up 7 ppg on 72 TS%.

Starting at about 15 minutes into The Hoop Collective.

I can attest I (and the rest of the blazers sub) have been pretty excited about what he’s shown in preseason

I'm glad it's not just us Suns fans who see something in him.

Like I know the sample size is small as fuck, but there's just something about the guy so far, he just looks a cut above your typical rookie.

I think people don't get what we meant about being more disappointed in losing him to the trade than Ayton. Nobody's saying he's 100% going to be better than Ayton, or even close to as good. But the point is we were prepared to lose Ayton, it was clearly what Ayton wanted. We were not prepared to lose our only young prospect we were high on.
