Austin Reaves was a good sport about the poster dunk that left him victimized during the Los Angeles Lakers’ 136—105 win over the Atlanta Hawks on Monday night at Crypto.com Arena.
On a night dominated by discourse about Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards‘s thunderous dunk, Atlanta forward Jalen Johnson also submitted a memorable slam, rising for a fast-break dunk while jamming his groin into Reaves’s face in the process.
After the game, Los Angeles Times reporter Dan Woike asked the Lakers guard what happened on the play. When Reaves replied by saying everyone already saw what happened, Woike commented that no one had his perspective, setting up Reaves for the perfect quip.
