    :LLLLLebronlaughing: ... Rui with the "gutter ball" after it was his idea. Colin's shot great if that had been downhill especially and Austin .... well that's a given.

    ESPN ranked Austin the 66th best player in the league out of 100, but their list is pretty bad IMO, so can’t put too much stock in it

    66 is pretty good for an undrafted guy in year 3!

    He'll be an all-star this year if our record is good enough

    He’s at least in the top 35. Whatever- just more fuel for the fire.

    I just love how Reaves plays. He’s been our third best player for two straight seasons and looks like it’ll be three in a row.

    James will rest during Sunday's preseason contest against Milwaukee, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.

    James and Austin Reaves will get routine rest Sunday. Both are expected to suit up in Los Angeles' preseason finale against Phoenix on Thursday.

    rescued from near page 2:

    https://www.theringer.com/nba/2023/...aves-los-angeles-lakers-lebron-james-team-usa

    some interesting tidbits in here.

    so houston was in on it pretty heavy, i wasn't sure.

    didn't know AD was one of his good friends on the team. wonder what AD and dlo said...

    handy with another assist

    apparently the hamstring injury was bad

    lol

    Guessing if FVV was a no, they were at least going to try for AR.

    News to me as well. Not well known like his friendship with DLO. I'm guessing they are quiter (but very confident) personalities in their own way and vibe over that kind of similar leadership.



    Handy... he's awesome. Sounding board, fashion consultant. There's no limit to his player impact. Can Jeanie give him a 25 year contract, please.


    Who are these kids with, Austin? The future ex Travis Kelce?
