With how well Austin Reaves has started the year for the Los Angeles Lakers, the Detroit Pistons should already be plotting to try to steal him next summer. They could have some cap space to work with if they play their cards right, and Reaves will be an unrestricted free agent.
Pairing Reaves in the backcourt with Cade Cunningham could lead to some questions on the defensive end, but teams have had success with less-than-stellar defensive backcourts before. Just look at the 2024 Dallas Mavericks. They surrounded Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving with great defense and made a run to the NBA Finals.
