How important is rural Kobe to the Lakers? One statistic team high partner Zhan Huang 11 wins 2 losses

Although it looks like just a rookie player, Country Kobe Austin Reeves looks very important to the Lakers. This season, when the Lakers have Reeves, they have a very good record, and when Reeves and James play at the same time, the Lakers have 11 wins and 2 losses.

Austin Reeves's NBA trip and his current role in the Lakers have surprised many people, and today Reeves not only has an important impact on the team, he is also the Lakers' hope for returning to the championship, although in the eyes of many, this is already unlikely.

Although it is affected by a variety of factors, when Reeves plays, the Lakers do have a better performance. Counting the last game to beat the Timberwolves, the Lakers' record in Austin Reeves this season is 14 wins and 5 losses, and more interestingly, if Reeves and James play together, the two have achieved a total of 11 wins and 2 losses in 13 games together.

However, after the team's training yesterday, when it comes to the team's record, Reeves has been downplaying his role in the team. "That means a lot," Reeves said. "Yesterday when I left the arena, someone mentioned it to me. I don't have social media, so I really don't know too much about the things that other people see. That means a lot, but like I said before, I just try to win the game and help the team succeed, and that's my main goal and the direction I'm trying to go. ”

The only thing that has bothered Reeves this season may be his appearances, having previously suffered hamstring injuries and being forced to quarantine due to health and safety protocols, resulting in only seven of his 25 games from Nov. 10 to Dec. 29.

Going in and out of the squad, Reeves said, "It was tough because I was out for 11 days because of the virus, and during that time I couldn't do anything, so the problem was worse than a hamstring injury. At least I had a hamstring strain, and I could go to the gym and practice shooting or something like that. All you need to do is be mentally ready and focus on whatever the team is going to do. ”

When Reeves can play, it is still very important for the Lakers, and the Lakers will certainly not think that a losing draft can play such a performance as it is now. The data shows that this season, Reeves averaged +4.5 plus-minus per game, the highest in the regular rotation. Meanwhile, when Austin Reeves was on the floor, the Lakers had to beat their opponents by 10.5 points per 100 possessions, the highest in the Lakers' rotation lineup. And when Bradley, Horton Tucker, Ellington, Ariza, Jordan Jr., and Bazemore are on the floor this season, the Lakers are actually going to lose points.

And Reeves also knows how to play with those superstars, this season, when Reeves and James play at the same time, the Lakers net wins the opponent +13.4 per 100 rounds, when Reeves and Westbrook play together, the Lakers 100 rounds net win score is +6.7, and when Reeves and James, Westbrook and Anthony Davis play together for 24 minutes, the Lakers won +45.1 per 100 rounds. "It's about being willing to do anything on the pitch," Reeves said.
