Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton had one of his best all-around games Tuesday night at the Miami Heat, drawing praise from coach Chauncey Billups. Ayton scored 22 points on 11-of-15 shooting and grabbed 15 rebounds during a 116-107 victory to start a three-game trip.

In one case, a man said he was “wrecked” after adopting an aggressive dog that was said to be friendly, according to prosecutors.
