Lakers sign Austin Reaves to four-year, $185 million contract

The Los Angeles Lakers have officially signed guard Austin Reaves to a maximum contract worth $185 million over four years. This deal marks the richest contract in NBA history for an undrafted player. Reaves, who expressed his desire to remain in Los Angeles despite uncertainty earlier this offseason, declined a previous player option to facilitate this new agreement. With Reaves and Luka Doncic as key players, the Lakers are focused on building a strong future following a series of offseason moves. Reaves will begin the season without LeBron James, but will play alongside Doncic.
