The Phoenix Suns took a bad loss at home to Trae Young the Atlanta Hawks last night by the score of 132-100, and Deandre Ayton said he thought his team did the right things defensively, but the Hawks made a lot of shots and it spiraled from there, according to Gerald Bourguet of PHNX Sports. […]

After shaking off some of their previous struggles to win six out of seven games, the Phoenix Suns took a tumble against the Atlanta Hawks, losing 132-100.
