Question is what you give up to get Ayton. If it is a simple consolidation move that turns THJ+Bullock (to take it from FGump...they aren´t giving you 18m/10m worth of value) or something similar into Ayton it´s a no brainer for me. If it involves this years or a future first I am out. If it involves Kyrie I would ask for additional compensation.
I think the intriguing part for most of us is the idea to have a legit starting big. With all his short comings Ayton still gives you 15-20pts/10reb per game. On top of that he has above average mobility and cannot be played off the floor by small ball lineups or stretch bigs.
He isn´t among the best bigs in the league and not worth a max deal but still an above average starting center.
