I think people underestimate what Ayton can do for the Lakers. While he's not as impressive as the other big man.

But at these times, it's wise for the Lakers to get big man for someone to post in the paint and at the same time also can score, he's the man. JJ could utilize him under the ring.

They wouldn't take someone and just give a contract to do nothing. Maybe for Laravia but I guess with Ayton, JJ has got some plays and important roles for him to play, let's give them a chance though.
