Reaves’ Historic Deal Shakes Lakers

Austin Reaves, the undrafted phenom who turned heads with his growth and chemistry alongside Luka Doncic, just signed a four-year, $185 million max deal with the Lakers — the largest ever for an undrafted player. While some fans question the move before he’s even made an All-Star team, the numbers say it’s financially savvy, and Reaves sacrificed a lucrative player option to lock in his future. With his career-high scoring and rising impact, he’s now a key piece in the Lakers’ backcourt, and his signing leaves room for other moves before he officially signs — all while the big questions about LeBron’s future and the team’s center remain unanswered.
