Austin Reaves says Christian Wood signing brings ‘more versatility’ to Lakers

The Lakers likely finished their summer signings by agreeing to a deal with Christian Wood over the last week. While it wasn’t an unexpected move as it had been rumored for weeks and weeks, it finally crossing the finish line felt like something that was never going to happen.

Wood presents lots of interesting possibilities for the Lakers as a true stretch big man, something they’ve not had consistently or reliably alongside Anthony Davis. Prior to his game against Canada with Team USA, Reaves spoke with our own Nicole Ganglani about his reaction to the Lakers landing Wood.
