Top Jaxson Hayes News

  • Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Re-signs with LAL

    Hayes agreed to a one-year contract with the Lakers on Thursday, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.

    Hayes will return to Los Angeles for a third straight season. The veteran center will now share the frontcourt with Deandre Ayton (calf), who signed with the team Wednesday. In 56 regular-season games last season, Hayes averaged 6.8 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game while shooting a career-high 72.2 percent from the field.

  • Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Shows improvement in sixth season

    Hayes averaged 6.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.9 blocks in 19.5 minutes over 56 games during the 2024-25 regular season.

    Hayes showed obvious improvement in his second year as a Laker, averaging his best scoring total since the 2021 season while setting career highs in both rebounds and assists. However, he struggled to find his footing during LA's first-round postseason series against the Timberwolves, averaging 1.8 points and 2.0 rebounds in four games before being a healthy scratch for Game 5.

  • Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Heads to bench Wednesday

    Hayes will come off the bench Wednesday against the Timberwolves, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.

    After being in the starting lineup for 36 straight games, Hayes will have a bench role in Game 5, with Dorian Finney-Smith taking his place as a starter. It has been a rough series for Hayes, as he has averaged 1.8 points and 2.0 rebounds per game across only 7.5 minutes per contest despite being in the starting lineup for the previous four games.

  • Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Sees just four minutes

    Hayes accumulated two points (1-2 FG), three rebounds and one assist in four minutes during Sunday's 116-113 loss to the Timberwolves in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Hayes had a brutal start, picking up a couple of quick fouls and a technical. He never saw the floor after that, with coach J.J. Redick opting to go with a smaller lineup with Dorian Finney-Smith playing the entire second half. A lineup change could be brewing for Game 5 with the season on the line for the Lakers.

  • Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Non-factor in Game 3 loss

    Hayes produced two points (1-2 FG) and one rebound over nine minutes during Friday's 116-104 loss to the Timberwolves in Game 3 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Hayes continues to be a non-factor, having now played fewer than 10 minutes in each of the three playoff games. He has scored a total of five points, and at this point, it's clear the Lakers will need to upgrade their center position if and when this season comes to an end.

  • Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Another lackluster performance

    Hayes chipped in two points (1-2 FG), one rebound and one block across nine minutes during Tuesday's 94-85 victory over the Timberwolves in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Hayes has been a complete non-factor in this series, as he has been more of a foul magnet than a player who can make an impact on the basketball floor. The veteran has played a total of 17 minutes across the first two games, racking up five fouls and three points, which has made him virtually unplayable and a player head coach JJ Redick hasn't been able to rely on in the paint.

  • Lakers' Jaxson Hayes: Invisible in Game 1 loss

    Hayes amassed one point (0-2 FG, 1-2 FT) and three rebounds over eight minutes during Saturday's 117-95 loss to the Timberwolves in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Despite starting, Hayes barely saw the floor, a worrying sign for the Lakers. While he has been an adequate starting option, Hayes is far from an elite center. His inability to spread the floor and limited defensive capabilities could see him used as more of an emergency option, rather than a consistent part of the rotation.
