Woj: Deandre Ayton facing 25 game suspension for banned substance

They’re claiming it’s a false positive via a diuretic and may appeal. Easily the highest profile banned substance situation involving a star on the rise since the league started testing.

What is the drug, or what is it for?

I'm no expert but I think you would take a diuretic to flush your system of other things, so hard to say what might be going on.

They said they didn't find any traces of a PED so the diuretic worked

Yup, typically used as a masking agent. Probably thought he was going to be popped for something else.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

This is entirely on Ayton

Either he's too stupid to pass an NBA drug test or he took something he shouldn't have, which again is on him

What the hell is the timeline for this? If he was tested before the season, why did he play in the opener? If he was tested after the game last night, they retest within 24 hours? How is that supposed to check for use of banned substances? Why not check before the next game?
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

They should test Greek Freak, Lebron James, Russell Westbrook, amongst many others.

He already apologised, which basically mean there was something he tried to hide..
