Ayton was bought out! Becoming a free agent for 48 hours, Meiji revealed that Team Eighth is interested in winning

This year, the Lakers and Mavericks quietly completed the Doncic trade, and the Mavericks won the No. 1 pick in the draft, which is considered to be a compensation for the league's insider trading. Now when the Lakers need centers the most, the Trail Blazers and Ayton have reached a buyout. ESPN reporter Shams Charania reported that Ayton will become a completely free man within 48 hours. The details of Ayton and the Trail Blazers’ buyout are unknown. US media revealed that Ayton at least leaves the Trail Blazers with a full middle class space.

To be honest, it goes without saying where Ayton went, and it is likely that it is the Lakers or the Warriors. Shams said there are eight teams interested in Ayton, namely the Lakers, Warriors, Celtics, Bucks, Hornets, Cavaliers, Spurs and the 76ers. Among them, it is difficult for the Spurs and Hornets to get Ayton because he and the Trail Blazers buyouts are not unilateral, but are decided by both sides, and even Ayton's own buyout request. Ayton really wants to win in a strong team instead of scaling data from a weak team.

The Lakers are quite attractive to Ayton. He can play as a starting center by joining, although the Warriors can also provide Ayton with a starting position. But the key is that Ayton's agent is the same as Doncic, which will inevitably prompt Ayton to join the Lakers with a greater probability. In addition, Pelinka is also very determined. After the team replaced its new boss, the wealthy management has allowed Pelinka to introduce a center at all costs, whether in trading or in the free market.

Ayton is definitely the most popular candidate in the Lakers' market at present, and he doesn't even dare to think about it without buying it. He was the No. 1 pick in 2018, surpassing Doncic. Ayton is still very young, he is not 27 years old. In the Trail Blazers this season, Ayton averaged 14.4 points, 10.2 rebounds and 1,6 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 56.7%. He is 2.11 meters tall and weighs 113 kg. If Dunbao plays seriously in the Lakers instead of continuing to be ill-fated, his achievements are limitless. To put it bluntly, next season will be Ayton's contract year.

If Ayton can rejuvenate in the Lakers and James is basically the last dance, then the Lakers will have enough space to build a team around Doncic in the 26-year offseason, and Ayton can become the team's first inside pillar to get a considerable contract renewal. Based on talent analysis, Ayton is not inferior to Thick Brows. The problem is that the style of play is not tough enough. What’s interesting is that Lakers netizens have already started celebrating. Basically everyone on the outside network thinks Ayton will go to the Lakers. Some even joked that the Trail Blazers will draw the No. 1 pick next year?

Ayton's departure must be a good thing for Yang Hansen. Dunbao was still praising Xiao Yang before, but he didn't expect he would leave first. We originally thought Ayton would leave the team by trading, but he had an expiration contract and it was easy to deal with. Unexpectedly, it was obvious that the buyout directly made room for Yang Hansen. The starting and substitute of the Trail Blazers are now obvious. The starting center must be Klingen, Yang Hansen plays a substitute, and it is difficult for Rowe and Rees to compete with Xiao Yang.

Normally predicts that Yang Hansen can get 15-20 minutes of rotation time in his first season. If Klingen is injured, Yang Hansen will be the starter. His route is too similar to Shin Kyung. Shen Jing played as a substitute in the first year, playing 72 games, starting 13 games, averaging 9.6 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists per 20 minutes per game, with a shooting percentage of 47%. Shen Jing is also a rookie with the 16th pick in 21. Our requirements for Yang Hansen are similar to those for Shen Jing's first year, if they can be achieved. Judging from Shen Jing's fourth year as an All-Star, Yang Hansen also has this ability, after all, none of the Fire Dragon family is empty.
