Nuggets expect Jonas Valanciunas to honor his contract.

What's the deal? Is he tired of the US? Will he get more money in Greece? I mean it looks like the Nuggets could win. Does he have a ring already?

It aligns with the Lakers championship aspirations to add a starter with experience on a Finals team in Deandre Ayton.

I am thinking the only thing they could do to him is sue him civilly. They could win a judgement. I'm thinking the judge would just tell him to play for Denver, or pay the Nuggets for his salary that is due. Maybe a penalty on top of that. I don't think a judge could stop him from playing in another league, half a world away. I hope he goes to Greece so we can see how this plays out.

This feels like DA’s last chance. He can get away with being late to practice and missing PT appointments at Portland, but with the Lakers, those habits will be public and heavily scrutinized.

This is feast or famine. No middle ground here

It's a great opportunity for Ayton.

Maybe the Lakers should assign him a personal mentor.

It’s a fantastic opportunity if he chooses to take advantage of it, but the media will be relentless in their admonishment if he keeps dicking around

Prob isn’t crazy about being a backup

 

[95pro]

I don’t think DA has the mental fortitude to keep up in LA.

If Kd was done with him, then Luka and Bron will be as well. Heck even a bottom feeder in Portland was done with him.

Maybe he plays this year for his next contract or he will be a mid level guy next season

You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink.

Ayton was not even bothered by being cut, he is still an immature idiot. If he was going to change it would have happened by now.

No Ryan Hollins for the Suns as he returns to the Bucks.

playing for his next contract is the only reason i think he's got a shot of being somewhat impactful in LA.

If the Lakers are smart they sign Hayes to a higher contract and move on from DA after this coming season.

 

[BirdGangThing]

ayton will torture laker fans - when you see what he can do - but then him not do it half the time... laker fans will let him know too

 

[JCSunsfan]

One of these days maybe DA will grow up. Maybe with the Lakers. He has a low bar to cross right now.

That sounds familar. Like familiar for 6 years familiar.

Imo its a high bar right now being in the LA spotlight.

That's not a surprise, but there was a thought he might be back for the end of the regular season. The Pacers aren't going to push him.

Hopefully Orlando can stay healthy. They're a bigger version of OKC and will be dangerous once they get some experience. Paolo, Wagner, Suggs, Bane, and a plethora of role players.
