One can only hope so.

But my guess is the FO will allow him to stagger through the final year of his contract.
If we draft a big like Ayton, you'd have to think that Chandler will get WAY fewer minutes. We may not force him out, but he might not want to stick around to play scant minutes per game.

Looks to me like playing isn't fun for him any more. He can barely get around the court. I bet he would be thrilled to earn his 13.5 in peace on the end of the bench.

He may not love our team culture, though.

I didn't. Baseless speculation.

I'd be surprised. What's not to love about our team culture.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

That headline pun was just low hanging fruit.
