Maybe I read too much into the "narratives" compared to our more statistically inclined fans but I want no part of Deandre Ayton.
Going back to Arizona, there were question marks about whether he loved basketball and was willing to work to be one of the best. He's been in the league for five years and those questions still haven't been answered. He's being shopped by his current team because they don't believe he is that guy.
It's the same reason I wanted no part of Ben Simmons when all the stats people were raving about the impact he can have.
The ONLY way I would want him is you were to tell me we're losing Kyrie for nothing and have an opportunity to send him to Phoenix for Ayton.
