Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves summed up his feelings in just two words after finalizing a new deal to remain in Los Angeles, according to a report published June 25, 2026.
The brief message surfaced as the Detroit Pistons were attempting to lure Reaves away. Despite that effort, the guard elected to stay with the Lakers, ending any possibility of a move to Detroit.
The report did not disclose financial terms of the agreement or repeat the exact phrase Reaves used, only noting that his reaction was limited to two words.
Reaves has become a reliable member of the Lakers’ backcourt since arriving in Los Angeles and will now continue that role under his new contract.
