Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton will start Thursday in the team's game against the Dallas Mavericks.
Ayton is dealing with a non-COVID illness. He missed the last couple games due to it, but on Thursday, he has been cleared to return to the court. He'll immediately start in his first game back, sending Bismack Biyombo back to the bench.
Our models project Ayton for 19.3 points, 10.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 37.8 FanDuel points across 31.8 minutes of action.
