I'm a Detroit fan and I'd give up our trash for him at that price but I wouldn't give up good assets.

Wiseman + Bagley + Hayes for Ayton is about all I'd pay to add him with that contract.

Only three seasons. I think he's valuable to a lot teams. Phoenix just doesn't value him and has disrespected him on multiple occasions. As such, they will trade him and get worse players in the process.

Swap for Gobert makes sense for fit reasons for both teams

Tons, he's 24 giving you 18 and 10 as the 3rd/4th option. As disappointing as he's been, some team(s) will still take a flyer and pray he lives up to even 70% of the pre-draft D-Rob comparisons and feature him as the 1st/2nd option. Especially since centers usually peak later into their 20s.

Doesn't mean that team will be successful making him the primary option but highly touted young players like Ayton will always get another chance to redeem themselves on some other franchise.

Does New York trade Mitchell Robinson and 3 lottery protected picks for him? I feel Phoenix would want actual player not a bunch of mid round picks. Ayton needs to go to a team where he doesn’t have any expectations. Where playoffs would be the ceiling. Somewhere like Charlotte for example.

No interest from Jazz
"Thibs called back and wanted more picks," said Jorge Sedano. "And Pat Riley, literally, I was told, called him a mother-bleeper and hung up the phone."

We can sign & trade Vuc to the Suns for him.
