7 wild Deandre Ayton trades, according to Trade Machine, after Suns’ Bradley Beal deal

Deandre Ayton Suns Bradley Beal Sun John Collins Kyrie Irving Mark Williams Hawks Nets Raptors

Bradley Beal is now a Phoenix Sun, a surprise given how, uh, bad the trade was for the Washington Wizards.

But let’s focus on the Suns for the moment. They’ve dealt away so much depth, which might partially explain why their title odds improved just slightly, weird for a team with Beal, Kevin Durant and Devin Booker.

That’s why the speculation has shifted to the franchise dealing Deandre Ayton. It would make some sense, right? They could use a different center given this current roster, along with way more depth.

Which leads us to fans delivering trade machine ideas involving Ayton:

1
Ayton to the Blazers

A wild deal that would get John Collins to the Suns. This is fun.

2
Ayton becomes a Celtic

I don’t see Boston making this deal, to be honest.

3
Ayton is a Hornet

This, of course, includes the Beal deal. I don’t hate this for the rebuilding Hornets.

4
Ayton to the Hawks

Once again, Collins is a Sun. Also there’s lots of depth here and Onyeka Okongwu would be the defensive center the Suns need. I love this one!

5
Ayton teams up with Luka

… But Kyrie Irving would join the Suns? Nope.

 

6
The Raptors grab Ayton

Not bad.

7
Ayton to the Nets

I don’t see the Nets doing this one, to be honest.
