Just a reminder that Ayton doesnt play nearly as explosive as he tests. He's more of a smoother athlete like KAT or a Steven Adams, and even though he tests like Prime Dwight, he doesnt explode that way in games. I dont expect him to dribble around much of anyone in the NBA.
This is a good thing. He has the athleticism for when he needs it, but he doesn't throw his body everywhere like Embiid.
This will help him to stay healthy and avoid injury.
Don’t jinx it.

Troy Daniels has taken over the role of "overrated bench player who's waiver material" previously occupied by Derrick Jones Jr.
I wish we kept Derrick. He's doing good things in Miami. Maybe he can help them get better so I can be less angry about that 2021 first rounder.

One thing I haven't seen from Ayton in any measurable manner is his first step with the ball driving to the basket. He has really only taken jumpers if outside the paint or passed out. I would like to see him explode past his defender and catch a body, and 1 like Amare did.
I definitely prefer jumpers to passing out...
