Damn shame he couldn’t care any less about basketball lol I bet this dude will play hard this season and scam another team 🤣
Bro hates the snow so bad
Lakers
What in the actual fuck is going on today
Lakers found their guy!
Annnd there’s the Lakers bigman lol
We can fix him
PHX could use another big
Why?
Cling Kong era is here
I know Lakers fans say this all the time, but this dude is actually about to become a Laker, isn’t he?
What the fuck lol
What’s his market?
Didn’t see this one coming
This dude was a starter on a finals team
Luka and Ayton?
HORNETS BABY! Lets get you to that NTMLE, AYTON!
Hornets
taking a buy out in today’s market just to hopefully get a midlevel is insane
A lot of you have never experienced Ayton playing for your favorite team lol
YANG HANSEN SZN
Figured after the Young Handsome selection
I’ll miss him and I do not think clingan is ready to start
Lakers have an opportunity to put together picks 1, 2 and 3 in the 2018 draft. Just gotta pick up Ayton and dig up Bagley’s corpse somewhere.
Lakers gunna REALLY test Lebron’s leadership by assembling the Avengers of NBA laziness. Shiiiiit just get DLo back.
Please be brook Lopez replacement
Remember when the pacers in 2022 signed him to an offer sheet and the suns matched it? What a dodged bullet for the pacers
Ayton is going to be the new Christian Wood for the Lakers.
Can’t wait for the front page to be flooded with his highlights for a week in November, only for him to become the favorite scapegoat of Lakers fans by the end of January.
Charlotte needs a big
He makes perfect sense for the Bucks. They have no bigs, and he already helped Giannis score 50pts in the finals once.
He can help him do it again.
as a suns fan, this guy got SONNED/outrebounded by zubac and jokic and people decided he sucked and his bad motor went from a problem to unplayable. I honestly wish he got to play with KD/book and the beal trade never happened but I am a sad fool and I dont think anyone on earth agrees with me. even when he wasnt trying it was 16/8 night in and night out
Warriors pls
This sub is terrible at categorizing disappointing players. Is DeAndre Ayton a bust for a number 1 pick and bad for a 30M+ contract? Yes, of course. Is he a solid NBA center who is worth rostering? Yes, of course. But for some reason the first statement being true leads people to acting like the second one is false.
