The squad took part in its third exhibition game on Sunday, defeating Spain, 98-88. It was a tight game for the first three quarters, but the Americans flexed their muscles early in the final period and pulled away for the victory.

Reaves had another solid game with 11 points and a couple of nice highlights. Former Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma took notice, and he showed his support for the undrafted standout guard on social media (h/t Lakers Daily).

The next exhibition contest for Team USA is scheduled for Friday versus Greece. It will play its first official game of the tournament on Aug. 26.
