Oh it’s terrible! I love it, hahaha. He’s Ayton or DA to me.

I’m requesting from the universe we see his fully utilized Hulk form tonight—the conjuring of the great DOMINAYTON to lead the Lakers to their 3rd straight win.
Going to need the Deandre Ayton revenge game tonight. I’m talking DOMINAYTON! Straight up 30 points and 20 rebounds.
Lakers who are available tonight vs. Portland: Austin Reaves, Jake LaRavia, Jarred Vanderbilt, Rui Hachimura, Deandre Ayton, Dalton Knecht, Bronny James, Nick Smith Jr. (two-way), Chris Mañon (two-way) and Christian Koloko (two-way).
Picked him up off the waivers in my fantasy bball league. He hit 4 3s last night. Lazer.
From Dave McMenamin:

“Doncic will be reevaluated in approximately one week. The Lakers are optimistic that Doncic will not need extended time for recovery beyond the initial estimated timeline, sources told ESPN.”
Incoming 51-11-9? Lol.
Lakers play the Wolves this upcoming Wednesday. Previously a scheduled loss with being out Luka and Bron, the game appears to be now all the more winnable.

Can Lakers stay .500 while Luka is out for the foreseeable week?
Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards will miss two weeks with a right hamstring strain, sources tell ESPN.
Lakers have a back-to-back game tonight against the Blazers, where 5 of their 10 rotation players are injured or banged up.

- Luka, Bron, and Hayes are out.
- Gabe got injured last night and was seen in a walking boot.
- Smart had to leave the game last night due to what looked like knee soreness.
Kings were fouling AR 94 feet from the basket, hahaha. The fuck do you expect?

Of the 11 fouls (including the tech), only 1 was suspect. Be better.
Austin Reaves for MIP. He’s putting up elite All-Star numbers.
Open up the pit! Blegh!
2-1 record. Pa’lante.

Austin Reaves with 51 points & 11 rebounds, the first 50-point double-double by an undrafted* player since Neil Johnston in 1954.

It's just the fourth 50-point game by an undrafted* player in NBA history.

The Lakers win a gutsy game, beating the Kings without LeBron James or Luka Dončić. Austin Reaves take a bow! He was a superstar in this game with a career-high 51 points. He also had 11 rebounds and 9 assists. Deandre Ayton was also big contributor with 22 points and 15 boards.
LAKERS
GET
IT
FUCKING
DONE!

Austin Reaves shows Luka Dončić how it's done, making his free throws and reaching 50-plus points against the Kings.
Austin Reaves poked fun at Luka Dončić for not making the final free throw that would've gotten Luka to 50 points the other night. Reaves has 47 with 38 seconds left in this game. The Lakers lead the Kings 122-119.
AUSTIN
FUCKING
REAVES
WITH
THE
50-PIECE!
Make both. Lead is up to 5. Kings have the ball with 30 seconds left in the game.
Who else and what else but AR at the line shooting FTs?
