Recently, a report detailed some concerning off-court habits of Deandre Ayton, which led to his buyout from the Portland Trail Blazers. Despite this, Ayton has found a new home with the Los Angeles Lakers.

According to a report from NBA insider Jake Fischer, Los Angeles is now facing competition from the Indiana Pacers to sign Ayton. Of course, Ayton previously signed a four-year, $133 million max offer sheet with the Pacers a few years back.

Ayton's addition makes the Lakers better on paper. But it will be what happens when no one is watching that demonstrates his biggest impact.
