The talented beast becomes an abandoned son! Ayton asks to buy out the crown and finds the crown, and the cleanliness center is lost in his career!

On June 30, 2025, the NBA free market broke out with big news: The Portland Trail Blazers claimed that they would buy out the remaining maximum salary contract worth $35.55 million for DeAndre Aiton. This news caused an uproar in the league like a thunder. This decision is one of the most expensive "breakup fees" in the history of the league, and what is even more surprising is that Ayton himself took the initiative to buy out. According to ESPN's famous reporter Shams, the Ayton team promoted the transaction because they were eager to "join the championship team", and even gave up part of their salary in exchange for freedom. Why did the former top scholar end up in such a situation?

From the prodigy in the high school arena to the NBA's "I'm sorry for the iron", Deandley Aiton's story is full of drama. The jump of the physical test was as high as 110cm, which was even stronger than the defender and could touch the upper edge of the rebound! But in the NBA arena, Ayton is as soft as a child, dare not fight, born with a vicious habit, and is like a big girl; his talent is too great but he always loses breath, making people love and hate!

Looking back at Ayton's youth, it was so glorious! In high school, he first spent two years at Balboa School in California. He transferred to Phoenix's Hillcrest Preparatory Academy, averaging 29.2 points, 16.7 rebounds and 3.8 blocks per game. The season in his senior year was even more evolved, with 26 points, 15 rebounds and 3.5 blocks, leading the team to 33 wins and 6 losses. Netizens worshipped him one after another: "This data is simply a modern version of Chamberlain!" When they graduated, the media praised him to heaven, punched Chamberlain, and kicked O'Neal. There was no need to say anything about the five-star high school student. ESPN ranked him third in the United States, losing only to Bagley and Porter Jr.

entered the University of Arizona. The rookie played 35 games in the season, averaging 20.1 points, 11.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.9 blocks per game, leading the freshman list of school history 704 points, with a three-point shooting percentage of 34.3%. Barkley praised him: "The management who missed Ayton is a fool!" With such a brilliant history, it shows that Ayton is not a false reputation. His projection potential allows fans to see infinite possibilities. But looking back now, Bagley and Porter Jr. are both doing well, Ayton's "Fengshen" is more like a bubble - no matter how good the high school data is, the NBA is the touchstone. The passion of youth is surging, but it is impossible to resist the cruelty and ruthlessness of reality.

Ayton's physical test data back then was shocking! He is 2.13 meters tall, with a wingspan of 2.27 meters, and a combat power of 2.82 meters high - this data is a top presence in the league. What's even more exaggerated is that he self-destructed that he could jump 110cm in running and jump in college. Wow, even a defender is hard to reach this level, and he can be called the leader in basketball!

But the problem is: With such terrifying athletic ability, Ayton is as soft as a child, dares not touch his muscles, and is born with a cleanliness and is tempted. No matter how high your talent is, you have to rely on head-on actual combat to fulfill it! Ayton's problem is like begging for money with a golden rice bowl - a waste of resources. Look, the black brothers have a strong sweat smell, but he even avoids confrontation. No wonder the fans complain: "You are as strong as a bull, but you don't like to bump into it. Isn't this self-destructive skill?" In fact, although Ayton's bounce data is awesome, he rarely shows this explosive power in actual NBA games, and is often criticized for "avoiding and fighting". This contrast is so ironic!

In 2018, Ayton entered the NBA as the No. 1 pick. He should have shined, but reality slapped him in the face - he proved with practical actions that he was not as good as Doncic. Netizens wailed: "Dunbao, your data are OK, and your average score and rebounds are not bad, but why don't you dare to fight? This is simply a waste of talent!" During the Suns, in some regular season games, Ayton can play like a super giant, but when it comes to key games, he becomes a big colander for the team. When it comes to the Trail Blazers, not only does the average number of data per game decrease year by year, but the attendance rate has also dropped significantly, becoming a representative of health basketball!

This guy Ayton is absolutely top-notch talent and has no big problems with his personal data, but his mentality is like a greenhouse flower - obsessed with cleanliness and twitching. No wonder he was criticized for being "born soft-boy". The world of the NBA is cruel: no matter how high the talent is, it is useless if you don’t fight head-on; if you have potential alone, you have to be harsh! The story of Ayton is a tug-of-war between talent and reality - a talented monster is faded by its "softness"; the glory of high school college has become a mirror in the NBA; the expectations of fans turn into a sigh. Life is like a stadium, talent is the ticket, but the real winner depends on hard work. Don’t let cleanliness and cowardice waste your golden rice bowl! Go ahead, no matter whether it is the court or life, you can only feel your own "backboard edge".
