Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Looks good in Thursday's start
Hayes had 16 points (8-10 FG), seven rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals in 34 minutes during Thursday's 124-104 victory over the Mavericks.
Making his third start in the last four games while Deandre Ayton (knee) is on the mend, Hayes tied his season scoring high while setting new season highs in minutes and steals. The 25-year-old center is averaging 13.7 points, 5.0 boards, 2.7 assists and 1.0 steals in 21.7 minutes over the last three contests, but his role is likely to shrink once Ayton is cleared to return.

Deandre Ayton (knee) was a late scratch Saturday, resulting in Hayes getting the starting nod for the first time since Dec. 20. As a starter this season (four games), the seventh-year center has averaged 11.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.5 assists across 28.8 minutes per tilt.

Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Suspended for Thursday's game
The NBA announced that Hayes has been suspended for Thursday's game against the 76ers after he pushed a mascot during pregame introductions in the Lakers' 142-111 win over the Wizards last Friday.
Hayes had appeared in both of the Lakers' ensuing two games following Friday's contest before the NBA concluded its investigation of the incident and levied the one-game ban. With Hayes sitting out Thursday, starting center Deandre Ayton could have a higher minutes floor, and the Lakers will likely turn to either Drew Timme or Maxi Kleber to serve as Ayton's primary backup.

Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Returns from three-game absence
Hayes (hamstring) contributed three points (1-1 FG, 1-2 FT) and five rebounds across 13 minutes Sunday in the Lakers' 110-93 win over the Raptors.
Hayes stepped back into his usual role as the Lakers' backup center after he had missed the previous three games while managing a sore left hamstring. So long as Deandre Ayton remains healthy, Hayes doesn't look poised to see his role grow substantially, as neither of the two centers offers enough floor spacing to play alongside one another in the frontcourt. For the season, Hayes is shooting a career-best 76.9 percent from the floor while averaging 6.2 points, 4.0 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 17.5 minutes over 33 appearances.
