During this offseason, Ayton has been back in his hometown working his tail off to quiet the noise that he’s been receiving all offseason long. He even discussed how he’s trying to change the narrative this upcoming season of what type of player he is.
"I can feel the whole world hating me… what I've been working on 5, 6 days a week… is just motivating myself to change the narrative of what people think about me. My goal this summer is to change the narrative."

He’s been putting those words into action as he’s been working out a ton in the Bahamas getting ready for the NBA season as well as the Olympic Qualifiers for his country.
