Why it matters: Ayton is adjusting to a new rotation role while seeking greater consistency on both ends of the floor. His offensive volume and interior efficiency remain focal points following an offseason change of scenery.

By the numbers: Ayton has recorded 5.4 points per game and 4.5 rebounds per game and 0.9 assists per game in 2026-27 through 8 games.

What to watch: Ayton looks to rebound with cleaner execution as the regular-season schedule continues.
