The Los Angeles Lakers' signing of Deandre Ayton keeps looking worse, and fans are getting fed up with his play. The seven-footer is immensely talented, but he has struggled with his attitude and effort in his previous stops. There is a reason a former number one overall draft pick in his prime was available on the buyout market. Lakers fans saw some cracks early in the season, but things are only getting worse.
Head coach JJ Redick has benched Ayton down the stretch in two of the last five games. He was blunt about Jaxson Hayes outplaying him the first time.
