"I don’t know if I am impressed. I always believe that I can solve the problem and get the opportunity. I will try my best and always believe that I am full of possibilities."
In an interview, Lakers player Austin Reeves said so.
During the offseason, he reached a four-year and $56 million renewal contract with the team, and will continue to fight for the glory of Zijin in the new season.
Reeves deserved this contract.
And this contract is also the best evidence that he dropped out of the draft and completely played out.
He averaged 16.9 points, 4.4 rebounds and 4.6 assists, shot 46.4% and shot 44.3%, which was Reeves’ report card in the playoffs last season.
It is no exaggeration to say that Xiao Li is the best player in the Lakers except for two core players, Zhan Mei.
Therefore, renewing his contract has always been an important task for Pelinka, the general manager of the team, during the offseason.
Fortunately, the average salary of less than $20 million left this excellent puzzle.
In the current NBA market environment, if he goes to other teams, there is a chance to earn more, such as the Spurs, which provides him with an annual salary of 20 million+.
However, Xiao Li is very clear that in this Lakers team, he can be appreciated, get the opportunity to play, and assume an important role, which can have a strong exposure.
As an athlete with a high dealer, he is a versatile player on the court.
Being able to organize attacks and score by yourself, especially the ability to make fouls, is impressive.
This summer, Reeves was also selected for the American men’s basketball team and will represent the team in the next World Cup.
From the draft to the national team players, this is a counterattack from Reeves!
