Austin Reaves has a huge night against the Kings

Prior to the Lakers playing the Kings, it was announced that they would be without their star Luka Donic. LeBron James and Jaxson Hayes are out of the line-up, due injuries, so the Lakers needed someone to step up. Austin Reaves was the guy that stepped up and attempted to steal the "beam" from the Kings. AR 15 got to his spots on the floor and used his speed to get to the rim. With AR going off, Sacramento attempted to double-team him, but Reaves was dishing dimes to D'Andre Ayton and Rui Hachimura. Both players combined for over 45 points. Even Marus Smart contributed on both sides of the ball.

LA shot from around 43% from three-point land was shooting around 45% from the field. With under .30 ticks, AR 15 hit some crucial free throws to ice the game and gave the Lakers a 127-120. AR finished with 51 points
