Deandre Ayton成為自由球員後，湖人以兩年1660萬美元合約簽下他，第二年為球員選項；合約細節包括25-26賽季810萬美元、26-27賽季850萬美元。
Ayton主動要求拓荒者買斷其3555萬美元合約，在買斷中犧牲約1000萬薪水，但實際僅損失190萬美元，加盟湖人後2026年仍可賺取3365萬美元。
Ayton選擇湖人的原因可能與2018年選秀探花Luka Dončić的深厚友誼及同經紀人因素有關，並婉拒了溜馬、尼克、快艇、公鹿、騎士、金塊等隊邀約。

Former No. 1 overall pick Deandre Ayton, now a free agent, has agreed to a two-year, $16.6 million (approximately NT$350 million) contract with the Los Angeles Lakers upon the opening of free agency, according to ESPN's renowned insider Shams Charania. The 26-year-old Ayton, drafted first overall in 2018, was previously a cornerstone player for the Phoenix Suns before being traded to the Portland Trail Blazers in 2023. This season with Portland, he averaged 14.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 1.6 assists while shooting 56.6% from the field across 40 games, logging 30.2 minutes per contest. Although he had one year remaining on his contract, Ayton was recently waived by the Trail Blazers.  

Charania reports that the Lakers finalized the two-year, $16.6 million deal with Ayton today, featuring a player option for the second year. Ayton fulfills the Lakers' long-standing need for a starting center. Details of the contract reveal Ayton will earn $8.1 million in the 2025-26 season and $8.5 million in 2026-27 (player option).  

Notably, Ayton initiated discussions with the Trail Blazers' management to negotiate a buyout of his $35.55 million contract. He sacrificed approximately $10 million in the buyout agreement. After signing with the Lakers, Ayton is still set to earn $33.65 million through 2026, meaning his actual financial sacrifice amounts to just $1.9 million.  

Ayton's arrival will also mark the first on-court partnership between the top pick (Ayton) and third overall pick (Luka Dončić) from the 2018 NBA Draft. The two stars forged a close friendship upon entering the league together and have maintained a strong bond since. This connection likely factored into Ayton’s decision to turn down offers from the Pacers, Knicks, and Clippers.
