Austin Reaves had 25 points (8-of- 16 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), four rebounds, five assists, two blocks, two steals and three three-pointers in Sunday’s win over the Knicks.
The Knicks could stop Reaves or Luka Doncic in this one, allowing the pair to combine for 60 points. On a play in the third quarter that resulted in an assist for Reaves, Knicks point guard Jalen Brunson fell to the floor while defending Reaves. He’s provided sixth-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Lakers have three games coming up in Week 20, starting with a matchup against the Timberwolves on Tuesday.
