The Los Angeles Lakers are fighting their way through the opening weeks of the season down multiple key players. That includes Marcus Smart, who was supposed to be the perfect solution to their problems. Instead, the Washington Wizards get to laugh out loud as the Lakers get a whole lot of nothing from their free agent addition.
Wednesday night, Austin Reaves hit a game-winning buzzer beater to etch his place in Los Angeles lore and carry the Lakers over the Minnesota Timberwolves. He did so with only two other guards on the roster playing in the game, totaling 15 minutes off the bench.
