Austin Reaves hilariously roasts Luka Doncic with ‘terrible shot’ dig after 43-point masterclass
The friendship between Austin Reaves and Luka Doncic continues to grow, as the pair keep throwing sly jabs at each other. Reaves and Doncic have grown very close during their time together on the Los Angeles Lakers, with the pair forming an elite backcourt partnership and a great friendship.
In the third quarter of the LA Lakers' victory over the Detroit Pistons, Austin Reaves executed a challenging three-point shot from the left side of the arc, which ultimately contributed to his impressive scoring performance. This shot closely resembled the type of attempts Luka Doncic typically attempts during Lakers games. Following the game, Reaves pounced on the opportunity to tease his teammate, jokingly stating, "That was a terrible shot.
Absolutely horrible. It was a horrible shot. Honestly, when I stepped back and shot it, I was like, 'This is some b******* Luka would shoot!'" Despite Reaves' lighthearted remark, the Lakers secured a significant win against one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference, the Pistons. In doing so, they extended their record to 9-2, currently tied with the Philadelphia 76ers, led by LeBron James, for the top spot in the NBA.
