  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Sparks comeback with triple-double

    Reaves totaled 29 points (10-20 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 14 rebounds, 10 assists and two blocks across 48 minutes in Tuesday's 128-124 double-overtime win over Milwaukee.

    Reaves and D'Angelo Russell both stepped into expanded playmaking roles while LeBron James (ankle) sat out Tuesday, with Reaves coming through with one of the more efficient scoring lines for the Lakers on a night when the team connected on just 38.9 percent of its field-goal attempts. He appeared to be headed for a much more modest line with the Bucks holding a 19-point lead with just under eight minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, but Reaves scored seven points and four assists in the final period to extend the game to overtime and bolster his statistics. James is expected to be back in action for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies, and though Reaves is likely to lose out on some shot attempts and assist opportunities, he's still primed to be a must-roster player for the rest of the season while the 40-32 Lakers remain hopeful to avoid the Western Conference Play-In Tournament.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Solid game in victory

    Reaves recorded 25 points (6-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 11-12 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and one block over 37 minutes during Sunday's 150-145 win over Indiana.

    Reaves completed a diverse stat line as the Lakers posted their best final score since 1987. The Oklahoma product returned to the 20-point threshold after averaging only 12.3 points over the previous three games. Reaves' success depends on a high shot volume, but his 11 points at the charity stripe represented a lot of his production in the narrow win.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Booms Wednesday

    Reaves chipped in 28 points (10-17 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 120-107 loss to the Kings.

    Reaves entered Wednesday's game averaging just 10.7 points across three prior meetings versus Sacramento this season, so it's nice to see the 25-year-old erupt against an exploitable defense. Wednesday marked his fourth game with 25-plus points this season -- matching his total from last season -- and Reaves is averaging 20.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists on 52.6 percent shooting across his last four contests.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Excels with 19 points

    Reaves closed Sunday's 120-109 victory over the Timberwolves with 19 points (7-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and four assists over 36 minutes.

    Reaves produced a solid line alongside his All-Star teammates. The team has extreme confidence in Reaves, who finds perimeter opportunities often as the off-guard, and he's usually a regular assist converter for LeBron James. D'Angelo Russell's shot was a bit off to begin the game, and Reaves capably picked up the slack.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Posts well-rounded stat line Friday

    Reaves provided 18 points (7-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Friday's 123-122 win over the Bucks.

    Reaves took a back seat on offense to backcourt mate D'Angelo Russell, who went off for 44 points, but the former nonetheless put up a healthy line to contribute to an important Lakers victory. Reaves finished third on the team with 18 points and second with seven dimes while chipping in a handful of rebounds. He's been consistent (though not overwhelming) of late, recording between 10 and 19 points in nine straight games and knocking down multiple triples in all but two contests during that span.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Double-double in career-high game

    Reaves ended with 19 points (7-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and 14 assists in 37 minutes during Saturday's 124-114 loss to Denver.

    Reaves led all players in Saturday's contest with a career-high assist total and connected on a team-high-tying trio of threes, finishing as one of two Lakers with a double-double during a losing effort. Reaves has handed out 10 or more dimes in five games this season, recording a double-double in four of those outings.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Continues solid play as starter

    Reaves produced 12 points (6-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 39 minutes during Thursday's 134-131 overtime victory over the Wizards.

    Since moving into the starting lineup at the beginning of January, Reaves has averaged 16.3 points, 6.0 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 0.9 steals in 33.8 minutes per game. After a slow start, the Lakers are finding their groove ahead of the playoffs, and Reaves and Rui Hachimura's insertion into the starting lineup is a key factor in Los Angeles' turnaround.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Posts 16 points in loss

    Reaves totaled 16 points (7-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt), four assists, two rebounds and one block in 27 minutes during Thursday's 128-110 loss to Golden State.

    The Lakers could have used a bit more production from Reaves, who was expected to have an increased role with LeBron James (ankle) on the sideline. Reaves appeared to suffer a leg injury at one point in the third quarter, but he checked back into the contest following a brief stint on the bench. His status may still warrant a close eye heading into the second leg of a back-to-back set Friday against the Spurs, though Reaves may be in line for more of a supporting role anyway with James expected to return to action.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Balanced line in victory

    Reaves notched 15 points (3-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-7 FT), seven rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 125-111 victory over Detroit.

    We saw the first glimpse of Spencer Dinwiddie's involvement, and the result appears to be good news for Reaves. Dinwiddie performed as a platoon with D'Angelo Russell, so while it's a concern for Russell's fantasy managers, Reaves' output appears to be safe. It wasn't a great shooting night for Reaves, but his seven dimes and a flawless night at the charity stripe boosted his fantasy total.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Explodes for 27 points in win

    Reaves supplied 27 points (10-15 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds and four assists over 31 minutes during Friday's 139-122 victory over the Pelicans.

    Reaves' shooting stroke was superb in the blowout win, and he put together his third-best scoring total of the season as a result. He was coming off two consecutive double-doubles, and while it looks like the Lakers are days away from offering a contract to Spencer Dinwiddie, Reaves is playing at a high level and it would be difficult to imagine coach Darvin Ham demoting the Oklahoma product.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Double-double in Thursday's loss

    Reaves provided 15 points (6-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, 10 assists and two steals over 36 minutes during Thursday's 114-106 loss to the Nuggets.

    It's his second straight game with double-digit dimes, and his fifth double-double of the season. Reaves has started 19 straight games, taking over that role at the beginning of January, and in that time the third-year guard is averaging 16.3 points, 6.3 assists, 3.0 boards, 1.7 threes and 0.9 steals.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Stays hot in win over Knicks

    Reaves notched 22 points (6-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and two blocks in 39 minutes during Saturday's 113-105 victory over New York.

    Reaves is operating with scoring conviction that is a legitimate swing factor in the Lakers' day-to-day success. His re-ignited foul-drawing prowess is yielding 6.6 free-throw attempts across his last five games, which is a huge improvement from the 3.3 free throws he averaged throughout his first 46 appearances this season. He averaged 4.1 free-throw attempts per game last season.

  • Lakers' Austin Reaves: Makes career-high seven threes

    Reaves notched 32 points (10-18 FG, 7-10 3Pt, 5-7 FT), two rebounds and three assists across 35 minutes during Thursday's 114-105 win over the Celtics.

    The Lakers were without their two most dominant players, Anthony Davis (Achilles) and LeBron James (ankle), against the best home team in the league Thursday, but Reaves stepped up his game and notched an impressive outing, tallying a career-high mark in threes made and a season-high mark in points. Reaves is averaging 16.5 points, 5.7 assists and 2.8 rebounds per game since the beginning of January.
