New tickets assigning to user but project settings are set to "Unassigned"

Question

I have a Jira cloud software project which has Project Settings-->Default assignee set to "Unassigned".

When I make a new ticket via the sprint board, the ticket is automatically assigned to a team member, how do I stop this from happening?
