In a post shared by ESPN on X, Reaves was heard being told, “I'm sure, you will get a text from Luka and LeBron after this one.” Responding to it, Reaves jokingly said, “They will probably tell me I suck because I missed like 14 shots, get back my brother and LeBron.”

Reaves produced a career-high 51 points, along with 11 rebounds and 9 assists in a victory against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday and followed it up with 41 points against the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday. “That guy is going to show up in the big moments.
