Austin Reaves Reportedly Rejects $89.2 Million Contract Extension From The Lakers

Austin Reaves has rejected a massive $89.2 million contract extension offer from the Los Angeles Lakers.

It’s crazy to think someone would turn down that much money, but hey, maybe he’s got bigger plans in mind.

According to news, the Lakers star was offered a four year, $89.2 contract extension. Now with Reaves deciding to go against it, have left the Lakers with a difficult choice to make.

As a matter of fact, Reaves has made a clever call. By declining the extension, he has opened up a new possibility. As per his performance last season, Reaves can earn 25% of a team’s salary cap as an unrestricted free agent. Thus, now the Lakers need to make up their minds whether they are ready to shed the extra amount to keep Reaves.

I wonder what this means for the Lakers now. Will they try to negotiate a new deal with him, or will they move on to other players? It’s definitely going to be interesting to see how this all plays out.
