Report: Austin Reaves, Lakers agree to 4-year deal

Austin Reaves has agreed to a four-year, $185 million maximum contract to remain with the Los Angeles Lakers, with a player option for the final season in 2029-30, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. The deal is reportedly the richest contract ever signed by an undrafted player in NBA history. Reaves averaged 23.3 points, 5.5 assists, and 4.7 rebounds per game during the 2025-26 season, though he played in only 51 games due to oblique and calf injuries.
