The Suns beat the Celtics 111-90 and Javier McGee started in place of injured Ayton, finishing with 21 points, 15 rebounds and two blocks.
McGee said after the game: "If I get traded here, not the Nuggets. We may have won the championship. ”
McGee was traded by the Cavaliers to nugget the Golds in March last year, while the Suns reached the Finals last season and eventually lost 2-4 to the Bucks.
