The third giant of the Lakers, he is really Ayton! 20+10 for the fifth time this season, he is not afraid to face Antetokounmpo

Who said Ayton would give up when faced with tough situations? Facing Giannis Antetokounmpo, he scored 20 points, 10 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block, without falling behind at all! It is worth noting that this is Ayton's two consecutive games with 20+10 back-to-back. He is really the third giant of the Lakers.

On November 16, the Lakers defeated the Bucks 119-95. In this game, Lakers player Deandre Ayton made 9 of 13 shots and scored 20 points, 10 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block. Although he could not limit Antetokounmpo (32 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists in this game), Ayton was not timid at all in the face-to-face confrontation.

Peter counted the data. This is the fifth time Ayton has scored 20+10 this season. So far this season, Ayton has averaged 30.5 minutes per game, averaging 15.9 points, 8.3 rebounds, 1 assist, and 0.9 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 69%! Among them, the scoring is the third highest on the team, second only to Doncic and Reeves.

Ayton, his annual salary this season is 8.3 million, and it is a player option next year. If Doncic (26 years old), Reeves (27 years old) and Ayton (27 years old) form a good chemical reaction this season, the Lakers will definitely renew Ayton's contract next year, and the starting salary is expected to be between 25 million and 30 million.

In this way, the Lakers' Big Three will basically take shape in the next 3-5 years, and James will leave next summer, if nothing else, with a 90% probability.
