Lakers Hold Ground: Austin Reaves Excluded from Dejounte Murray Trade Discussions
In a bold move that has sent shockwaves through the NBA trade landscape, the Los Angeles Lakers have made their stance clear: Austin Reaves will not be part of any potential deal involving San Antonio Spurs star Dejounte Murray. Sources close to the Lakers’ front office reveal that despite ongoing negotiations, Reaves, a rising talent in his own right, remains firmly off the table in talks aimed at bolstering the Lakers’ roster for the upcoming season.
