Austin Reeves is having the absolute time of his life alongside Luka Doncic and LeBron James.
It’s not hard to see the chemistry between the players on the court, they smile and joke around but also lock in when needed.
Reeves was recently asked what has changed since LeBron returned, but he thinks the team just made the right reads.
“No, I think you just pass the ball to the open guy,” Reeves said. “Especially LeBron and Luka, they need double teams like that on a lot of games, which means somebody’s going to be open and we can play 4-on-3 basketball. I think just passing the ball to the open guy and playing basketball.”
The Lakers guard went on to talk about the selflessness of the superstars on the team and how much fun that makes the whole experience.
“I feel great,” he said. “LeBron and I have a great friendship, and Luka and I play off each other on the court. It’s fun though. We talk about it all the time, and we have three guys who can make plays and are unselfish… If you’re in the right spot, everybody should benefit from it, so it’s really fun.”
LeBron has also not been shy about expressing his affection for Reeves and how good the Purple and Gold are right now.
“It’s easy. We’ve been together, we’ve played a lot of games together, a lot of minutes together. There’s been a lot of situations,” LeBron said after the win over the Clippers. “We know where we are and sometimes we don’t even have to look. You have a chemistry filter on the rest of our team. We’re playing some really good ball right now.”
