Austin Reaves is expected to remain with the Los Angeles Lakers even if it means accepting a slightly lower salary compared to what he could command on a new five-year contract estimated at $239 million.
Reaves' Potential Pay Cut
If he wanted, Reaves could demand a higher salary. However, he is not expected to do so, especially since the Lakers plan to build a team around him and Luka Doncic.
Lakers' Future Plans
It is undeniable that LeBron James, another Lakers star, is getting older, prompting the team to take action regarding their roster construction.
