Elfrid Payton will make his Suns debut on Saturday and is expected to start
Guard Elfrid Payton will make his Phoenix Suns debut on Saturday against the Denver Nuggets, and is expected to start.
What It Means:
Tyler Ulis (back) is a game-time decision, and if he's ruled out, Payton could immediately be thrust into heavy minutes. This season, Payton averaged 13.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 6.3 assists in 28.6 minutes a game for the Orlando Magic.
numberFire's initial projections show Payton getting 20.4 FanDuel points tonight.
