Ayton talks about dunking: I didn’t expect LeBron and the others to be so excited. They hope I can do this.

October 26th NBA regular season news, the Lakers defeated the Timberwolves 128-110.

After the game, Ayton accepted an interview with reporters. Talking about his dunk after passing down the pick-and-roll, he said: "I really didn't expect LeBron and others to be so excited. I know I didn't dunk, but that's what they like. They want me to do this. I told them I can do it, which is why I sometimes say that I am a confusing big man - because you don't know what performance I will perform. I mean for the opponent, you don't Know what you're going to encounter. It could be a basic big man in the pick-and-roll, or a big man with solid skills and good positioning, or an athletic big man who can play under the basket and grab rebounds all day long."

In this campaign, Ayton played 31 minutes, made 7 of 11 shots, and scored 15 points, 8 rebounds, and 1 block on 1 of 2 free throws.
