David Howard+FollowDeandre Ayton got emotional receiving the Community Assist AwardDeandre Ayton was visibly emotional when the Lakers surprised him with the NBA Cares Bob Lanier Community Assist Award for November, recognizing his community work in Jamaica and Los Angeles. In July, Ayton and the Ayton Family Foundation reopened the Cedar Spring Community Center in St. Elizabeth Parish (his mother’s hometown), turning it into a hub for education, health, and recreation. After Hurricane Melissa, he committed $100,000 toward relief and activated the same center as an emergency shelter and aid distribution hub. This is what “impact” looks like when it’s not just a check—it's infrastructure, a safe place, and immediate help when disaster hits. #NBA #Lakers #DeandreAyton #NBACares #CommunityAssistAward #Jamaica #NBADiscussion30Share
Nicholas Buchanan+FollowDeandre Ayton Makes Lakers History: Perfect 14–12 Double-Double, 0 TurnoversLast night vs the 76ers, Deandre Ayton turned in a spotless line: 14 PTS, 12 REB on 7-for-7 FG with 0 turnovers in 31 minutes — and the Lakers got the 112–108 win. Per one roundup, Ayton is the first Lakers starter ever to post a double-double with no misses and no turnovers — wild considering the franchise’s lineage of walking double-doubles (Wilt, Kareem, Shaq). Early days, but Ayton’s been exactly what L.A. hoped for: efficient touches, glass work, and clean decision-making that fits alongside their creators. #NBA #Lakers #DeandreAyton #LakeShow #Efficiency #PerfectGame #DoubleDouble10Share
