Phoenix Suns’ DeAndre Ayton is in the news for all the wrong reasons.
On Monday, the Karl Malone Award- winner started trending after adult film actress Katt Leya shared a video of the 25-year-old NBA player straitening her hair on Snapchat.

Apparently, the viral clip was meant to be a “Boyfriend Goals” moment. However, the clip turned out to be fodder for trollers.
Few fans started foreseeing Ayton’s future and compared him to NBA star Zion Williamson’s scandal.
In June 2023, Only Fans creator Moriah Mills claimed that she had sexual relations with Williamson around the time his alleged girlfriend, Ahkeema, announced they were expecting a baby girl together. Mills also threatened to release alleged sex tapes with the New Orleans Pelicans power forward.
Currently, DeAndre Ayton is romantically involved with Anissa Evans, and the pair shares a toddler son named Deandre Ayton Jr. together.
The Suns picked Ayton as the first overall choice in the 2018 NBA Draft and he made his debut that year in October.
In 2021, DeAndre led the Suns to an NBA Finals berth after 28 years.
Ayton is now under a multi-year deal with the Suns.
