yup. With Luka as I've predicted here a few times.
Luka and Ayton with Lebron in his final year.
OR
he might be going to Hornets, maybe thats why Hornets got rid of Williams and Nurkic

Because almost certain either Lakers GM or Hornets GM got to him and told him they have a 3-5 year contract for him near or over 100M waiting.
Luka and Ayton would be a good pair.
Ball and Ayton also a good pair.
But **** the Lakers.

Re: The Official 2025 Offseason Thread Part 3
A small part of me wonders if DA just retires saying “all I wanted was that second contract, so now I’m out.”
I don’t think he would really do that. But it would be hilarious.

If all he has to do is play defense and be the recipients of like 50 Luka/Lebron lobs a game, it's pretty easy to meet expectations imo

DA is such a great player that the Blazers bought him out.

Ok don't laugh at me. Any shot the Sextton deal is an expansion of the Williams trade? Allen and Micic for Sexton and Williams looks like it works money wise. If not it's damn close I think. Just rosterbating

I doubt it. Haven’t seen any mention of that but nothing wrong with wishing.

DA will get more than Veterans minimum deal. But I do think Lakers are first in line for DA.

Before anyone asks, the Suns have zero interest in a potential reunion with Deandre Ayton, per a source

I'm far from a DA fan but if he got the tax payer mid level, there's a damn good chance Luka/Lebron could get a hell of a lot more value out of DA than the $6m-ish contract.

Probably didn't need to be said lol. However, we also have like 8 bigs on this roster so it didn't make sense anyway.
