'He got whatever he wanted': Austin Reaves carries Lakers' offense, showcasing his value The second-year guard scored a career-high 35 points, including 13 in the fourth quarter, to help buoy the Lakers in the Play-In race.

MARCH 20, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Posts career-high 35 points in win Reaves registered 35 points (9-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 16-18 FT), six rebounds and six assists across 30 minutes during Sunday's 111-105 victory over the Magic.

Impact Reaves was brilliant off the bench, scoring 13 points in the fourth quarter while piling up trips to the foul line. He broke his career record with 18 free-throw attempts, converting those opportunities at a healthy clip. The second-year pro has carved a significant role this season, although his minutes appeared to be at risk with the arrivals of D'Angelo Russell and Malik Beasley at the trade deadline. While Russell has been installed as the team's starting point guard, Reaves has consistently outplayed Beasley since his arrival, though head coach Darvin Ham seems satisfied with Reaves' current sixth-man role. Even if Reaves keeps coming off the bench, he could continue to see ample playing time due to his ability to draw fouls and convert at a respectable rate from downtown.

Racks up 24 points off bench Reaves posted 24 points (6-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 11-13 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Wednesday's 114-110 loss to the Rockets.

Impact The Lakers were missing both Anthony Davis (foot) and LeBron James (foot) against Houston, and it was Reaves who emerged as the team's leading scorer. The second-year guard hit the 20-point mark for the fifth time this season, finishing just one point shy of his campaign-high total. Reaves did much of his work from the charity stripe, where he knocked down a season-high 11 free-throws on 13 attempts. For good measure, Reaves finished one assist shy of his campaign-best mark to cap the all-around strong effort.

Keeps scoring streak alive Reaves logged 14 points (4-5 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-5 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal over 29 minutes during Tuesday's 123-108 victory over the Pelicans.

Impact Reaves was efficient from the field in Tuesday's win and has been excellent of late, scoring in double digits in his last five contests and seven of the previous eight. He's averaging 14.7 points per game while shooting 56.1 percent from the field and 47.4 percent from deep since the beginning of March and could be a solid streaming options for fantasy managers in need of a scoring punch and three-point shooting.
