Ayton s latest next odds: The Warriors lead the Lakers to chase, and there is a possibility of returning to the Suns
11:10pm, 1 July 2025【Basketball】
On June 30, the NBA free agent market caused another wave. According to authoritative news from multiple parties, 2018 No. 1 pick De Andre Aiton has officially reached a buyout agreement with the Portland Trail Blazers. After the 48-hour clarification period is safely passed, the talented center will officially become an unrestricted free agent, triggering a snatch from many powerful teams.
Aiton regained his freedom and instantly ignited the league's enthusiasm for signings. The latest list of odds for the next player clearly outlines the battle pattern:
Golden State Warriors (+235) unexpectedly occupy the leading position, and the attractiveness of its pass-through system to technical insiders is self-evident.
Los Angeles Lakers (+350) followed closely, and the Purple and Gold Army's desire for center position has become an open secret.
Phoenix Suns (+400) Ayton's old club ranks third. Is it possible to return to Phoenix?
Other competitors include the Raptors (+450), Heat (+575), Bulls (+650), Nets (+750) and Celtics (+850), and the battle is fierce.
Lakers' interests are by no means groundless. Famous reporter Shams Charania confirmed that Ayton is indeed an important potential target for the Lakers to strengthen the No. 5 position. Lakers' basketball operations president Rob Pelinka regards the center position as a key focus this summer's reinforcement. Ayton and Luca Doncic share this special connection with the same agent may be able to build a unique bridge for communication between the two parties.
The green light of the rule: The offseason is unhindered, and the rich team can also give it a try
In response to the outside world's doubts about the match between Ayton's high contract and the middle class special case (about 14.1 million US dollars), salary expert Bobby Marks explained: Although Ayton's remaining salary is far greater than that of the middle class special case, it is currently the offseason, and the salary restrictions for teams above the "Second Rich Line" to claim players in the season will not take effect. This means that potential competitors, including the Warriors, Lakers, and Suns, are free to quote according to their own needs.
Chain reaction: Trail Blazers leverage, Yang Hansen welcomes new opportunities
Trail Blazers decisively buy Ayton this time, and their strategic intentions are clearly visible - creating a broader space for growth for young players. Chinese star Yang Hansen is undoubtedly one of the biggest beneficiaries. With Ayton leaving the team, the Trail Blazers' inside rotation will inevitably reorganize, and the possibility of Yang Hansen obtaining stable rotation time in the new season and even competing for the main substitute position has been greatly increased. Many domestic basketball observers believe that this operation has almost secured an important rotational seat for Yang Hansen, and the opportunity for breakthrough in his NBA career is close to us.
Eaton's next suspense will be officially announced after the clarification period ends. No matter which team he finally put on, the chain reaction it triggered has profoundly changed the layout of multiple teams, and unexpectedly opened a door of opportunity for new Chinese basketball players. The changes in the free market have just begun.
