Please call all of them.

The offense already has enough advantages, and this stuff trickles down into the youth game where it gets taught as a skill just like the "gather step".

A bit of an anachronism in "today's NBA," but he's a proven low-post scorer, which Landale and Biyombo aren't.
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

If we were to trade Ayton for a playmaking wing, I feel like Favors could make sense as a vet min signing to add big man depth…of course that depends on what condition he’s in, but he’s a solid defender that is much more skilled than Biyombo.

My guess is he's at roughly 350 lbs right now. Hope he can get into NBA shape.

Why would you think he’s at 350 lbs…I think you’re probably over by at least 75 lbs
