Will Deandre Ayton bets be refunded after injury during Lakers vs. Nuggets on 3/5/26?

Lakers center Deandre Ayton exited Thursday’s game vs. the Denver Nuggets at the end of the second quarter and will not return.

Ayton played five minutes, recording two rebounds. He has now been ruled out for the remainder of the game.

Some DraftKings Sportsbook bettors may wonder whether the new Early Exit program is in effect.

Since Ayton left during the first half due to injury and will not return, Early Exit does apply in this case. Single pre-game and live prop bets on his lines will settle as a loss but be refunded via cash credits within 24 hours of the game’s conclusion. Parlays involving Ayton’s lines will remain open with recalculated odds after affected legs are voided.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
