2024 Fantasy Outlook
Reaves continued to show improvement during his third NBA season, setting new career highs in games played, minutes, points, rebounds, assists, steals and made three-pointers per game. Despite improvement almost across the board, Reaves saw his field-goal percentage take a step backward from a blistering 52.9 percent in 2022-23, to a still highly respectable 48.6 percent in 2023-24. He also went from 39.8 percent from behind the arc in 2022-23, to 36.7 percent in 2023-24. Additionally, he showed an increase from 1.5 turnovers in per game in 2022-23 to 2.1 turnovers per game in 2023-24. Regular season and playoffs combined, Reaves hit the 20-point mark on 23 occasions last season, including a season-high 32-point effort on 10-for-18 shooting in a road win against the Celtics in February. He also logged a minimum of 10 assists on seven occasions, including five double-doubles and one triple-double. He hauled in a minimum of 10 rebounds in five outings, including another three double-doubles for a total of eight double-doubles and one triple-double on the campaign. Reaves knocked down more than three three-pointers in nine outings, including a season-high seven threes on two occasions. Looking ahead, Reaves is set to remain the starting shooting guard for the Lakers, playing a critical role as an offensive contributor. He is unlikely to make much of a push for new highs across the stat sheet, considering he averaged over 30 minutes per game last season and must continue to share the ball with the likes of LeBron James, Anthony Davis and D'Angelo Russell.

Signed a three-year, $38.93 million contract with the Lakers in July of 2023. Contract includes $14.9 million player option for 2026-27. 
Struggles in Game 5 defeat
Reaves accumulated 12 points (5-14 FG, 2-10 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists in 41 minutes during Wednesday's 103-96 loss to the Timberwolves in Game 5 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
ANALYSIS
Reaves played a muted role in Wednesday's loss, once again experiencing shooting woes as the Lakers fell 4-1 to the Timberwolves. The 26-year-old guard struggled with efficiency during the Lakers' first-round series, averaging 16.2 points, 5.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists while shooting 41.1 percent from the field and 31.9 percent from downtown across 39.4 minutes per game. The rising star had a career-best season in the 2024-25 campaign, finishing with averages of 20.2 points, 5.8 assists, 4.5 rebounds, 2.7 three-pointers and 1.1 steals across 34.9 minutes per contest in 73 regular-season games. Reaves is entering the penultimate season of his four-year pact, though he holds a player option for the 2026-27 campaign.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Reaves broke through in his second NBA campaign, providing the Lakers with much-needed shooting and a consistent offensive spark. The Oklahoma product drained 39.8 percent of his three-point attempts and 52.9 percent of his field-goal tries overall while knocking down free throws at an 86.4 percent rate. Reaves averaged 13.0 points, 3.4 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.3 triples per contest, but he shined after the All-Star break, when he posted per-game averages of 17.6 points, 5.5 dimes, 3.1 boards and 1.5 three-pointers. He carried that success into the postseason, averaging 16.9 points, 4.6 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 2.4 triples while shooting 44.3 percent from deep and serving as the Lakers' most effective offensive option behind LeBron James and Anthony Davis during the team's run to the Western Conference Finals. Reaves was rewarded for his strong play with a four-year, $56 million contract in the offseason, and he should have a chance to prove that last year was not a fluke as a full-time starter moving forward. There has been talk that Los Angeles intends to use Reaves more as a playmaker next season, potentially leading to a boost in his assist and scoring numbers. If he's able to make some strides there while maintaining his excellent shooting percentages, Reaves could provide mid-round fantasy value during the coming campaign.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Recent reports denied
Reports indicating that Reaves dislikes playing alongside Luka Doncic have been deemed fake by Reaves' agency, AMR Agency, according to Trevor Lane of Lakers Nation. "Austin has nothing but the utmost respect for Luka and truly enjoys playing alongside him. Any suggestion to the contrary is completely false. He's excited to be on the court with Luka-both now and in the future."
ANALYSIS
Reaves recently turned down a four-year, $89.2 million extension offer to remain with the Lakers for the long term. While that might have been taken as a sign that Reaves was not completely happy in Los Angeles, it seems the recent reports aren't accurate. It remains to be seen if this will be a topic as the start of the 2025-26 season gets closer, but as of now, there's no reason to believe the Lakers would part ways with Reaves.
