  1. That’s what happens when you are in a perfect spot. You get your opportunity, you have the work ethic. You have the right mentality. Plus, the whole team is backing you up and they trust you. No where to go but up! 😊

    He grabbed his opportunity and never looked back. Hopefully the Lakers extends him this summer. He really deserves more than 10mil/year

  2. We existed way before curry. We existed in the 70’s, Run-TMC era, 90’s, and We Believe and a majority of the 2000’s.

  3. It’s insane that Austin was under looked in his career. Never was was picked on draft day and wasn’t high prospect. When that Lakers picked him and after his year, the man was a GEM and reminded me a lot of Alex Caurso just a better defender. The man this year is playing out of his mind and Lakers fan cross the USA gave him an nickname “AR15” and the man is legit HIM! I’m glad that we have. I hope we don’t loose him

  4. So excited to see if he really gonna play for Germany like Dennis said, an all nba lineup of Schröder, Reaves, F.Wagner, Kleber and Theis would be nothing short but amazing

  5. Reaves' mindset is championship quality. When he gets emotional or angry he doesn't turn on his team, he turns on his opponents and puts that energy into the game.

  6. Poor kid is getting the Caruso treatment.
    Everybody love him and talk about him in LA , the second he'll get traded away, nobody will talk about him just like Caruso since he got in the Bulls

  7. I love to hear about this man rather than whatever Lebron is whining about now. So refreshing! Can’t wait for more fresh faces in the NBA.

  8. I mean he was a kobee fan for a reason, the best thing he could copy is his work ethic
