Deandre Ayton
Lakers
Recap
Deandre Ayton contributed 12 points and nine rebounds in the Lakers’ preseason finale loss to the Kings, narrowly missing a double-double. With LeBron James sidelined due to sciatica, building chemistry with Luka Dončić is crucial for Ayton. While this could increase his fantasy potential, whether he’ll capitalize on the opportunity remains uncertain as adjustments are still needed on the offensive end.
