Do you think Austin Reaves will get traded? π€ #austinreaves #lakers #nba #nbanews
Austin Reeves will get traded next season and there’s nothing the Lakers can do to prevent it. AR has been one of the best bargains in the entire NBA. The Lakers locked him up for just $53 million over four years, but now he’s widely outplaying that deal. This season, Reeves has put up 20 points per game with nearly six assists and four and a half rebounds per night while being a legit shot creator and drawing fouls like a superstar. And that is the exact issue here. Reeves is about to hit free agency and he’s going to get paid. I’m talking $40 million per year. But the Lakers, they can only offer him $83 million over four years. And let’s be honest here, he’s turning that down in a heartbeat. He’ll decline his $14 million player option and hit the open market at 27 years old and probably double his salary elsewhere. So unless LA wants to lose him for nothing, they got one choice and that’s to trade

Talk about deni avdia!!!

I said ar15 worth like 35 million per year
He ainβt good in the playoffs tho
Hes on his way to mil in part of a package for Giannis….. they need a big for bron and Luka. Dallas wins the draft lotto to get cooper flag as part of the deal of giving Luka to Lakers. If that happens I quit watching forever
Nah ad coming back in free agency π
Never liked austin reaves in the first place i hope he does leave
James Harden level playoff riser.
Im trading LeBron for Jokic and watch watch AR Luka and Joker do to the NBA in a lakers uniform! π
My son in law knows him and we were talking with him and he actually said he wanted to stay in LA
I like reeves if he can be the 4th option or 3rd with my 4th not being a big drop off
Donβt care anymore. The Lakers are a joke. Disappointing. Maybe if LeTurkey retires. But until then, the Lakers franchise is pure garbage.
If lakers gotta trade somebody, it gotta be LeBron cause reeves put up more points than LeBron. LeBron be making 4-8 point game now π
No, he wonβt, bro
Heβs a diehard Laker fan he will stay
A.R. NICE
Am I Trippin or does this guy kind of looks like Travis Hunter, but white version?
He's not worth $40 million a year
That will save his career teaming up with lebumbum will ruin your whole career
He was a dead duck in the playoffs.πππππ
This Austin guy does not show up in the play-offs I would trade him whether we could pay him or not
he aint a 40 mill guy hes js an elite role player shining because defenses focus on lebron and luka
Dump Reaves and LeBron.
Dont leave lakers
He disappeared in the playoffs
He is the new nugget
Lakers can bring Lonnie Walker back. He was better than Reaves,until walker got injured.
He is inconsistent
Man these contracts are insane I don't know bro 83 million to stay on the Lakers sounds pretty f**** good
Raptors donβt want himπ
I wouldnβt trade him, I would let LeBron go (real lakers fans know)
To the Utah Jaws to become Stockton v2
