The Los Angeles Lakers aren’t quite as good as some thought they’d be by now. They are 16-15 and ninth in the Western Conference. They have lost six of their last eight games.
Granted, their schedule has been challenging lately, but they also have a lack of wins over good or great teams. They’re also struggling on the road. While they’re a solid 10-4 at home, they are 6-11 away from Crypto.com Arena.
Still, guard Austin Reaves seems to believe in the Purple and Gold. He said he believes the team can beat any other team it faces.

After a rough start to the season, Reaves has certainly been holding up his end of the bargain. The Arkansas native is averaging 17.9 points and 5.2 assists a game while shooting 50% from the field and 43.1% from 3-point range in the month of December.
