Deandre Ayton is like that guy who lied on his resume, only to get the job and have to fake it. He's suddenly become important in his new role as the starting center of the Los Angeles Lakers.
But to his credit, he's fared surprisingly well in that role, averaging 15.1 points and 8.8 rebounds per game. Ayton has provided the Lakers with an upgrade over last season's disastrous center rotation that ultimately contributed to an early postseason exit.
Given his history, he'd ideally be considered a luxury to have on a roster, but that's not the scenario the Lakers find themselves in.
