The upcoming season is going to be beyond pivotal for Austin Reaves of the Los Angeles Lakers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Not only does Reaves want to help his team win, but he also wants to show his value so he can get a major new deal in the summer.<\/p>\n

Writing for NBC Sports, Kurt Helin said that Reaves will most certainly become a free agent next summer, and he wants a deal similar to that of Tyler Herro of the Miami Heat, who is pulling in $30 million a year.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cReaves will be a free agent. There is zero chance he is picking up his $14.9 million player option, even if he plans to stay with the Lakers. Reaves reportedly wants to be paid in the Tyler Herro range of $30 million a year (and Herro is a good comp in a lot of ways),\u201d Helin wrote, via NBACentral.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Austin Reaves reportedly wants a contract worth the same as Tyler Herro\u2019s, per @basketballtalk<\/a> <\/p>\n

When the Lakers gave Reaves his last deal, everyone agreed that they got him as a steal.<\/p>\n

In 2025-26, he is owed just under $14 million.<\/p>\n

Following that, he has a player option and is in control of his fate.<\/p>\n

He could accept the $14,898,786 that will be offered by the Lakers, or he could try his hand at free agency and see what other teams have to give.<\/p>\n

Is a deal like Herro\u2019s out there waiting for him?<\/p>\n

It may be, and it might come from his current team.<\/p>\n

If Reaves plays well in the upcoming season, the Lakers would leap at the chance to keep him and would offer him $30 million annually, or even more.<\/p>\n

But if he has more problems in the playoffs, they might not be eager to sign him, and Reaves may have to look around the league for a healthier contract.<\/p>\n

Reaves loves playing in LA, and the Lakers cherish him, so both sides could work out a package that makes everyone happy.<\/p>\n

However, that all depends on how the upcoming season goes and what Reaves does on the court.<\/p>\n
