All NBA eyes were on Austin Reaves after his 51-point performance

Of all the superstars in the NBA, it was Los Angeles Lakers guard and former Oklahoma standout Austin Reaves who had the spotlight on Sunday.

Reaves posted a career-high 51 points in the Lakers’ 127-120 road win against the Sacramento Kings. It was the second-most points a player has scored in a single game so far this young season, but the Oklahoma
City Thunder’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander needed two overtimes to reach 55 points against the Indiana Pacers.
