The NBA Finals are still rolling, but free agency is mere weeks away from opening. While Lakers star guard Austin Reaves is one of this year’s top free agents, it’s widely presumed he’ll ink a new deal to remain in Los Angeles that comes with a much deserved payday. That doesn’t mean other teams can’t try to poach him, though.
According to a report from The Athletic’s Dan Woike on Friday, Reaves is expected to have interest from the Brooklyn Nets who could offer a deal for close to $45 million annually. Citing sources, Woike also brought up the Detroit Pistons and Atlanta Hawks as interested teams who can also create the space to make a competitive offer.
