By all accounts, Austin Reaves’ rookie season with the Lakers was as great as it was unexpected. He was able to go from an undrafted free agent to a starter and consistent role player inside of his first season, playing well enough overall to earn a pair of All-Rookie team votes.
Obviously, there was still room to grow even still for as great as he was in his inaugural season. One of those biggest areas for growth would be from his jumper offensively, specifically from 3-point range.
An area in which he struggled even in college, Reaves came into the NBA and shot 31.
