Since the 2022 Free Agency transfer market began, Los Angeles Lakers they have been trying every possible way to get the trade with the Brooklyn Nets for Kyrie Irving. The Los Angeles franchise wanted to offer Russell Westbrook in exchange, but the talks have been dead for so many days that NBA Rumors have declared them completely broken.
However, Adrian Wojnarowski announced that the Lakers themselves were working on carrying out other transfers other than Irving’s. All cameras pointed to a Talen Horton-Tucker that has been on the market since winter. But Sam Amico, from the Hoops Wire medium, says that the shots can go elsewhere. Specifically towards another player, Austin Reaves.
“My sources have told me that there are several NBA teams that are very interested in the young shooting guard for the Lakers,” Amico said. Reaves is coming off a rookie season, playing 61 games and averaging 7.3 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.8 assists. All this playing an average of 23 minutes per game.

The possibility of being the key piece to carry out a transfer that will make us forget the disastrous 2022
Although Austin Reaves is happy with his stay in the Los Angeles Lakers, the 24-year-old player may be included by the Los Angeles franchise in some agreement to continue improving his squad regarding the failure of the last season, where not even qualification for the qualifying tournament (Play-in) prior to the Playoffs was achieved.
