[Holdahl] Ayton tried for hours to combat the sheet of ice leading out of his neighborhood and the team sent people out to help as well, but to no avail, so he is out for tonight’s game versus Brooklyn.

I think I need a visual aid for this one because what.
***EDIT**: damn just checked out r/Portland, didn’t realize how bad it was city-wide. The tweet made it sound like it was just the road leading out of his neighborhood. Stay safe out there.*
If the team was able to get people to his house, couldn’t they just take him to the game
dominayton the ice.
I can’t explain it but this is such an Ayton thing to even happen
Is he in Westeros?
A tank can probably help him out.
if ayton worked at safeway he’d be fired but it’s okay if he’s in the nba
how far does he live from the arena?
Sounds like there was ayton of ice on the street
DNP: Stuck at home playing video games
Bro bout to put his status as Offline and game all night 😂 SNOW DAY
Snow day with video games, Ayton must be stoked
Is the snow that bad fr ? I heard it is
I’m surprised the blazers let us do a ticket exchange out of Sunday’s game, but not for tonight’s game. The Max is still down, and that’s a major transportation route for fans to get to and from the game.
Larry Bird would never
Portland is in an absolutely massive ice storm with half the city out of heat and power. They also don’t treat or salt the roads. The ice is no joke. Shocked the game wasn’t canceled because people have been told to stay home.
Just grab some ice skates and you’re on your way.
Out of anyone this could happen to, of course this happens to Ayton lol
The out for game reports this season are absolutely destroying the competition. A snow day is a generational reason
What would Brian Boitano do?
Mans went out and sprayed his driveway the night before to make sure he got a day off to game
DNP – ICED
Dude took a snow day 😭
Why doesn’t he just skate there? Is he stupid?
Can confirm – I just fell on my ass walking around out here.
It is impossible to get around the city whenever it snows here. Way too many hills and there is no city infrastructure to combat snow. Still funny for Ayton to be the one missing the game lol
Dude just hasn’t embraced the PNW and bought a Subaru.
Man went from the Bahamas, to San Diego, to Arizona. He don’t know what to do with that shit 😂. But also driving on ice is just a horrible idea even if you are used to it
If it was any other player nobody would bat an eye but since it’s Ayton this is hilarious
I’m prettt sure ayton lives in the ritz part of town, Lake Oswego, West Linn or Tigard area. It can be very hilly especially if you live in a tucked away hood. I’m pretty sure Ant lives on a hill so I’m surprised he made it in.
Hibernayton
Makes it sound like there is only one giant sheet of ice in the entire city and it’s camped outside Ayton’s subdivision blocking them lol.
The videos on /r/Portland are [crazy.](https://np.reddit.com/r/Portland/comments/1996b2l/the_city_is_an_ice_rink/?ref=share&ref_source=link)
Snow Day-ton
I feel like this would make a great movie for 10 year olds in the 90s. A Disney Channel movie “Get Ayton to the Arena”. A group of neighborhood kids work to get him to the arena and a bunch of neighborhood hijynx ensure. Probably have one old grumpy neighbor or a bully that is a fan of the other team.
They get him there just in time and he has a monster game with them court side. The team celebrates with them in the locker room. Ayton throws his jersey to the young 11 year old protagonist who has dreamed of being a pro basketball player and practices every night, and says “hey kid, why don’t you come by and we can work to heat up that jump shot of yours”
Ice in his lanes
