Lakers: Austin Reaves outlines his offseason plan

One of the few bright spots this season for the Los Angeles Lakers has been the play of Austin Reaves.

He went undrafted last summer, then signed a contract with L.A. At first, it seemed like he would be a project player who would, more likely than not, fail to pan out.

But from the start of the regular season, Reaves proved he could play with the big boys.

In his exit interview, he talked about what he has planned for the offseason.

Via Lakers Nation:

“Gonna take a little bit of time off now,” Reaves said. “But I’ll get back to work soon and take this summer real serious. Work on myself, work on my body, work on my game as well and just try to get as good as I can get.”

The 6-foot-5 guard ended the regular season with a virtuoso performance, putting up 31 points, 16 rebounds and 10 assists while leading the Lakers back from a big fourth-quarter deficit to beat the Denver Nuggets in overtime, 146-141.
