Austin Reaves has established himself as one of the most solid players in the league, even though he was signed by the Lakers just three years ago after going undrafted. He has also developed a strong bond with one of the greatest players of all time and his teammate LeBron James. Both of them are seen jostling around during playoff games.

LeBron has been making his picks for Weekly Football games this offseason. His luck has been up and down throughout the season. However, that didn’t stop Austin Reaves from making a hilarious comment during LeBron’s latest livestream where he was making his picks for the upcoming games. Under the livestream, Reaves commented “LePickem is back at it,” which got hilarious reactions from fans.

LeBron has been very inconsistent with his picks this season. For his picks for week 6 of the season, he barely made it over .500 with his picks and fans have been consistently making fun of him for not being able to predict games.

Austin Reaves and LeBron James ready to win a championship this season

Just in three years in the league, he has become a solid player. Now, after a season where the Lakers made it to the Western Conference Finals, Reaves and the Lakers are primed and ready to win a championship this season.

The Lakers had a very busy offseason, but they didn’t utilize the offseason to find another star player because they had found their third star in Reaves and they used the offseason to add depth to the roster by adding players like Gabe Vincent, Taurean Prince, among others. This will allow LeBron and Davis to take smaller roles, and allow Reaves to flourish and develop his game, which could help the team secure the long-awaited championship.
