Deandre Ayton Cleared to Return Friday
Los Angeles Lakers center Deandre Ayton (knee) is not listed on the injury report for Friday's game against the Clippers after missing two contests before the All-Star break. With the roster back to full strength, Ayton is expected to reclaim his starting role, pushing Jaxson Hayes to the bench. Over his last five games, Ayton has averaged 12.8 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 1.4 assists in 27.5 minutes, offering steady rebounding with modest usage behind Luka Doncic and LeBron James. He profiles as a mid-tier center hold, while Hayes loses short-term streaming appeal.
