According to Lakers reporter Anthony Irwin, the Spurs and a number of other teams are watching Austin Reaves' moves and may try to make a contract offer once he becomes a free agent.

According to the report, the odds are that Reaves will decline his player option after the new season and expect to earn between $30 million and $35 million per year on his next contract. Both Reeves and the Lakers are looking to continue working together for the foreseeable future, sources said.

It is reported that Reeves is interested in improving his defense this summer offseason, and although Smart will be the primary defender after that, he hopes that he will no longer be the obvious weak link in the defense. And on the offensive end, because the team has Doncic and James, Reeves is currently focused on strengthening the shooting and no ball offense.

Several teams, including the Spurs, are keeping an eye on Reaves. The Lakers terminated all negotiations on Reeves, but Reeves is about to become a free agent, so there is no stopping other teams from continuing to inquire in the new season. However, the Lakers still want to see Doncic and Reeves become the team's future backcourt partners.
