Arizona's departed 7-foot frontcourt duo of Deandre Ayton and Dusan Ristic might appear for a few more games after all.
Ristic will play for the Suns' summer league team as an undrafted free agent, according to Yahoo's Jordan Schultz, who cited Ristic's agent, Chris Patrick. Both Ristic and Patrick have not returned messages from the Star seeking comment.

Ristic worked out for the Suns earlier this month after auditioning for five others, saying he was emphasizing a team-oriented attitude and an improving game.
“I’m just trying to prove I can play on the next level,” Ristic said after his Suns workout. “I’m actually not trying to do something I didn’t do in college … just to extend my range (of skills) a little bit and show I’m a team player. I care about winning. I want to be a great team player, a great guy in the locker room and do what coach asks me to do.”
