According to a report from NBA insider Jake Fischer, Los Angeles is now facing competition from the Indiana Pacers to sign Ayton. Of course, Ayton previously signed a four-year, $133 million max offer sheet with the Pacers a few years back.

ESPN's Brian Windhorst made a great point on First Take this morning. Since the Bucks and Lakers were two of the teams competing to sign the now free agent Deandre Ayton, the Lakers have less competition when it comes to signing Ayton.

The Bucks’ move for Myles Turner clears the way for the Lakers to sign Deandre Ayton as their starting center in NBA Free Agency.
