www.nba.comHere’s the latest publicly reported context about Deandre Ayton and his jersey number.
Ayton currently wears number 22 with the Los Angeles Lakers. This has been his primary number since joining the Lakers and is the one you’ll see listed on game sheets and team rosters.
There have been periodic injury updates and role discussions surrounding Ayton during the 2024–2025 and 2025–2026 seasons, but none have indicated a change to his jersey number. Typical coverage includes game-by-game stats, status notes, and discussions about his fit within the Lakers' rotation.
General commentary around his role with the Lakers in late 2025–early 2026 noted some questions about fit and usage, but did not modify his listed number. Reports focus on on-court role, durability, and performance rather than equipment changes.
If you’d like, I can fetch the most current roster pages or game-day listings to confirm Ayton’s number for a specific date or game. I can also pull together a quick update on his status (injuries, roster role) if that helps.
