Completely drifted! Rejected the Lakers by 89.2 million! He threatened to easily score in the All-Star

On October 1, there are 21 days left before the opening of the regular season. Lakers guard Reeves said in an interview: "I feel that I am fully capable of being selected as the All-Star, but I don't want to be an All-Star by swiping data. I don't want to be in an environment where I can only keep shooting and can only swipe data. I don't care about such an All-Star."

During this offseason, Reeves rejected the Lakers' four-year, $89.2 million contract renewal, which is the largest contract the Lakers can provide at this stage. Speaking of this decision, Reeves said: "This does not mean that I don't want to stay in Los Angeles. I hope to play in Los Angeles all my career. But at the end of the day, this is a business."

Lakers reporter Dan Woike wrote that Reeves will jump out of the contract next summer and try the free market. He seeks a big contract with an annual salary of $35 million or even an annual salary of $40 million, which means a new contract with a four-year, $140 million to $160 million. If the Lakers can't keep him, they may trade him this season.

Reeves currently has a contract of $54 million for four years, with an annual salary of $13.94 million in the 2025-26 season, and a player option of $14.9 million in the 2026-27 season. According to Reeves' data, it is not difficult to get a contract with an average salary of 25 million in the free market. So the Lakers don't have to think about it, Reeves will definitely not implement the player option.

Reeves was born on May 29, 1998, and is 1.96 meters tall and has a wingspan of 1.99 meters. Although Reeves has only played in the NBA for four years, he is actually one year older than Doncic. In the 2024-25 regular season, Reeves averaged 20.2 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 1.1 steals and 2.4 turnovers, with three shooting percentages: 46%, 37.7%, and 87.7%.

This year's playoffs, Reeves' data dropped significantly: averaging 16.2 points, 5.4 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 0.2 steals, 0.6 blocks and 2.8 turnovers, with three shooting percentages: 41.1%, 31.9%, 85.7%. Reeves is 27 years old and it is hard to expect him to have much room for improvement. Some fans questioned: Reeves may not be able to play such data when he leaves the Lakers.

The last question: What do you think Reeves' next contract will be? Should the Lakers trade him?
