Austin Reaves News: Double-double in blowout win
Reaves registered 25 points (9-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 11 assists and seven rebounds over 37 minutes during the Lakers' 128-110 win over the Timberwolves on Friday.
Reaves flirted with a double-double in Tuesday's loss to the Warriors on Opening Night, but he managed to reach that mark Friday while leading the Lakers in assists and finishing second in points and rebounds to Luka Doncic (49 points and 11 rebounds). Reaves will continue to serve as the Lakers' clear second option on offense behind Doncic until LeBron James (back) is cleared to return, which is expected to be in mid-November.
