Do y'all still think they'll move Ayton? IMO this shows they're going top heavy and depth be damned.
Well one of the side effects of the new CBA could be less middle salaries for veterans, so if you play for (borderline) minimum deals, you might as well play in a sunny place with an excellent chance to win an NBA championship. That would be my guess for their strategy, but I also think they might be interested to turn Ayton into multiple pieces, really depending on their feelings about him.
