Reaves' agent warns critics: 'Next year is going to be a show'

Austin Reaves' agent is putting the NBA on notice amid trade rumors surrounding the Los Angeles Lakers guard.

Reaves' agent, Aaron Reilly, reposted a highlight clip of his client on X over the weekend, promising that big things are coming.

"Next year is going to be a show," Reilly wrote. "People really have no idea what's to come. Keep putting him in trade rumors for second-string centers."

Reaves enjoyed a breakout season with the Lakers in 2024-25, averaging a career-high 20.2 points, 5.8 assists, and 4.5 rebounds per game while shooting 48.1% from the field and 37% from the three-point range.

The 26-year-old has two years remaining on the four-year, $56-million contract he signed in July 2023, which includes a player option for the 2026-27 campaign.
