TrueHoop’s Jarod Hector and David Thorpe discuss summer happenings in the NBA.
* Deandre Ayton had to get the Indiana Pacers to offer an exorbitant contract in order for the Phoenix Suns (the team that drafted him #1 overall) to pay him. There are going to be some awkward moments and hurt feelings this summer and heading into camp. How do the Suns fix that?
* The Utah Jazz are in full teardown mode and David is not happy.
* Where does Donovan Mitchell best fit in the NBA?
