Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Not listed on injury report
Ayton (eye) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Thursday's game versus the Clippers.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Questionable to return Tuesday
Ayton is questionable to return to Tuesday's game against the Nuggets due to a left eye injury, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Perfect from field vs. Toronto
Ayton tallied 25 points (10-10 FG, 5-6 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and one block over 33 minutes during the Lakers' 110-93 win over the Raptors on Sunday.
Ayton was perfect from the field during Sunday's win, with his lone miss coming from the charity stripe. He didn't seem bothered by a left knee injury that kept him out of Saturday's loss to the Trail Blazers, grabbing a game-high 13 boards en route to his 16th double-double of the season (and third over his last four outings). Ayton has averaged 11.5 points, 9.1 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.1 blocks over 29.1 minutes per game since Jan. 2.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Back in action
Ayton (knee) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Raptors, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.
Ayton took a seat for Saturday's clash while dealing with knee soreness, but he's ready to roll Sunday. The big man is averaging close to a double-double in January, putting up 11.5 points and 9.1 rebounds over eight appearances.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Ruled out Saturday
Ayton (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers, Thuc Nhi Nguyen of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Ayton will miss the front end of Los Angeles' back-to-back set due to left knee soreness, and his next opportunity to play will come Sunday against the Raptors. With the 27-year-old center and Jaxson Hayes (hamstring) both sidelined, Maxi Kleber, Drew Timme and Jarred Vanderbilt are all candidates for increased playing time.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Iffy for Saturday
Ayton (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports.
Ayton is managing left knee soreness that puts his availability in question for the first leg of the Lakers' weekend back-to-back. With backup center Jaxson Hayes (hamstring) also questionable, Los Angeles could be without its top two bigs Saturday. If both are sidelined, Maxi Kleber and Drew Timme would be candidates to handle frontcourt minutes.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Double-doubles with two blocks
Ayton logged 13 points (4-7 FG, 5-8 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 27 minutes during Monday's 124-112 loss to the Kings.
Although Los Angeles was unable to win, Ayton bounced back from his quiet performance Friday against Milwaukee. Ayton's production has been rather inconsistent recently, and he is averaging 10.5 points, 8.2 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.5 steals and 1.3 blocks across 28.5 minutes through six games in January.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Poor showing in loss
Ayton had four points (2-6 FG) and five rebounds in 24 minutes during Friday's 105-101 loss to the Bucks.
Ayton had a tough night on both ends of the floor, so he ended up splitting the center minutes with Jaxson Hayes. Ayton is seemingly trending in the wrong direction, posting averages of 10.1 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.1 blocks over his last seven games.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Double-doubles in win
Ayton finished Tuesday's 111-103 victory over the Pelicans with 18 points (9-16 FG), 11 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal across 32 minutes.
Ayton has been a hit-or-miss fantasy asset lately, and it's been widely reported that he wants to be more involved in the offense. If Tuesday was any indication, coach JJ Redick is doing exactly that -- Ayton had 16 shot attempts in the win.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Efficient scoring continues
Ayton produced 15 points (6-8 FG, 3-6 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal in 34 minutes during Sunday's 120-114 win over the Grizzlies.
The star big man continues to roll along during his first year with the Lakers. Ayton has averaged 12.9 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.1 blocks and 0.9 steals in 29.7 minutes per contest over his last 14 games, shooting a robust 71.6 percent from the floor.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Posts double-double in victory
Ayton finished Sunday's 125-101 win over the Kings with 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 30 minutes.
Ayton found his way to his 12th double-double this season after posting only two rebounds against Houston earlier in the week. Coach JJ Redick didn't name names, but he had some harsh words for his team after the loss to Houston. Ayton might have been one of his targets, as the big man often shows a lack of hustle despite grabbing his share of rebounds.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Double-double in Tuesday's return
Ayton notched 12 points (6-8 FG, 0-1 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and three steals over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 132-108 loss to Phoenix.
Facing the team he spent the first five seasons of his NBA career with as he returned from a two-game absence due to a sore elbow, Ayton delivered his 11th double-double of the season. Seven of those have come in his last 13 contests dating back to Nov. 14, a stretch in which he's averaging 14.8 points, 10.2 boards, 1.2 steals and 1.1 blocks while shooting a stellar 75.0 percent from the floor.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Good to go for Tuesday
Ayton (elbow) is available for Tuesday's game against the Suns.
Ayton was a full participant in Monday's practice and is set for a return following a two-game absence. He had averaged a double-double in his previous five games before going down with the elbow injury, so his presence should provide a boost for LA with Luka Doncic (leg) and Rui Hachimura (groin) sidelined.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Goes through practice
Ayton (elbow) practiced in full Monday, ESPN's Dave McMenamin reports.
Ayton has missed the past two games for the Lakers, but the big man appears close to a return. More clarity can be expected once the Lakers release their injury report Monday evening, but for now, Ayton can be considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Suns.

Ayton (elbow) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Clippers, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.
Ayton will end up missing a second consecutive game while working through left elbow soreness, and his next chance to play is Tuesday against the Suns. Jaxson Hayes should draw the start at center Saturday in Ayton's absence.

Ayton paced the Lakers on the boards in the victory, recording his second double-double over his last three games. He's been a solid presence as a scorer and at the rim over his last eight appearances, averaging 14.9 points, 10.0 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in 29.8 minutes per game.

Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Double-doubles in win
