Deandre Ayton: Breaking News

Records double-double Sunday

Ayton provided 22 points (10-14 FG, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and three blocks in 26 minutes during Sunday's 131-107 victory over Utah. Ayton co-led the Lakers in scoring alongside Rui Hachimura, and the big man will need to provide this kind of output on offense in a difficult first-round series against the Rockets due to the likely absences of Luka Doncic (hamstring) and Austin Reaves (oblique) for much of the series. Ayton averaged 12.5 points and 8.0 rebounds per game across 72 starts in the regular season.

Hits for 21 in Thursday's win

Ayton provided 21 points (9-11 FG, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one block over 31 minutes during Thursday's 119-103 victory over the Warriors. It's the first time since March 12 that Ayton has delivered 20-plus points. All five Laker starters scored in double digits Thursday as the team tries to compensate for the absence of Luka Doncic (hamstring) and Austin Reaves (oblique), and in three games since the two stars went down, Ayton is averaging 12.3 points, 4.0 boards, 1.0 blocks and 0.7 assists in 24.3 minutes.

Just misses double-double in win

Ayton had 18 points (8-13 FG, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 28 minutes during Tuesday's 127-113 win over the Cavaliers. It was Ayton's best scoring effort since March 12 as he moves past a back issue that sidelined him last Wednesday and limited him to 22 minutes in each of his prior two games. The 27-year-old center's production was inconsistent in March, even when healthy, as he averaged 11.1 points, 7.8 boards, 1.1 blocks and 0.9 assists in 25.5 minutes over 15 appearances, but he did shoot 73.3 percent from the floor.
