Austin Reaves is one of the most dangerous basketball players because he is excellent in chemistry, unity of trust and intelligence. He makes his teammates stronger, more energetic and more confident. He is a biggest nightmare to his opponent coaches because he made his opponents get many fouls so they were forced to be benched. I am looking forward to his playing next year.

his crossover is underrated. So efficient

I look at him like a proud father. I love seeing this kids growth

What sets him apart is his intelligence, with super high skill, and just enough athleticism to pull it together. At the 38 second mark - watch how he looks up at the clock to determine how much time he has all in the same motion of catching the ball and turning up court, only to release a perfectly timed half-court attempt that hit bottom. The key variable is the checked the clock and turned up court in one motion. AR - is NICE!
