There is a rotation issue with followerEntity. For example, when the unit goes into an attack, followerEntity.isStopped is set to true.
During the attack animation, the unit is made to look at the target using transform.LookAt(target.position).
However, when the attack is finished, and followerEntity.isStopped is restored to false, the unit’s rotation returns to the position it was in when isStopped was first set to true.
This is a Video to help with your understanding.

This is my code in Animator State Behavior.
public class ZombieSMBAttack : SceneLinkedSMB<Zombie>
{
// Attack State Enter
public override void OnSLStateEnter(Animator animator, AnimatorStateInfo stateInfo, int layerIndex)
{
m_unit.IsAttacking = true;
m_unit.ai.isStopped = true;
}
// Attack State Update
public override void OnSLTransitionToStateUpdate(Animator animator, AnimatorStateInfo stateInfo, int layerIndex)
{
LookTarget();
}
// Attack State Update
public override void OnSLStateNoTransitionUpdate(Animator animator, AnimatorStateInfo stateInfo, int layerIndex)
{
LookTarget();
}
// Attack State Exit
public override void OnSLStatePreExit(Animator animator, AnimatorStateInfo stateInfo, int layerIndex)
{
m_unit.IsAttacking = false;
m_unit.ai.isStopped = false;
}
void LookTarget()
{
if (m_unit.Target != null && m_unit.Target.IsAlive)
{
m_unit.transform.LookAt(m_unit.Target.transform);
}
}
}
