NBA Fans send in hilarious reactions after Jay Williams questions LeBron James' position with the Lakers - "He's a retard", CTE is terrible"

In LeBron James' absence from the LA Lakers, undrafted second-year guard Austin Reaves has been on a tear recently. Reaves has been aggressive, giving quality production as the Lakers chase a postseason spot in the tight Western Conference.With James recovering from his foot injury, ESPN's Jay Williams questioned how the Lakers would be able to reintegrate the NBA's all-time scoring king:&quot;How do you bring back LeBron? Like, the more I sit there and think about it, the more I think about ... when you bring back LeBron, in a short period, how in the hell is Austin Reaves supposed to continue to play at this level?&quot;The ball is in Austin Reaves' hands a ton. You guys know the kind of ladder, the kind of rhythm you get when the ball's in your hand? You increase the amount of possessions, the volume of possessions ... 'I feel way more confident with the rock now.' When LeBron comes back and Austin Reaves has been balling, Dlo's (D'Angelo Russell) been balling right?&quot;But now you bring LeBron James back, are you gonna play LeBron James off the ball?&quot;The comment received attention from Twitter users.Chris Hatfield@_ChrisHatfield@TheNBACentral @jswissa8 CTE is terrible1261@TheNBACentral @jswissa8 CTE is terribleI'm him@bignick_2He's a r*tard twitter.com/TheNBACentral/…NBACentral@TheNBACentralJay Williams on Austin Reaves’ growth on the ball: “How do you bring back LeBron?” (h/t @jswissa8 ) 141997Jay Williams on Austin Reaves’ growth on the ball: “How do you bring back LeBron?” (h/t @jswissa8 ) https://t.co/7IKFp2cATlHe's a r*tard twitter.com/TheNBACentral/…Jake@Procis1on@TheNBACentral @jswissa8 Buddy its Lebron, you tell Austin Reaves go stand in the corner95120@TheNBACentral @jswissa8 Buddy its Lebron, you tell Austin Reaves go stand in the cornerron pakgang@pakingan_ron@TheNBACentral @jswissa8 Reaves had some okay week, and they thought about lebron as the new role player @TheNBACentral @jswissa8 Reaves had some okay week, and they thought about lebron as the new role player 😂😭Jacob Bolcer@jacob_bolcer@TheNBACentral @jswissa8 its austins team now.@TheNBACentral @jswissa8 😂😂 its austins team now.Ahmed/The Ears/IG: BigBizTheGod 🇸🇴@big_business_Bro we literally took an L to Maxi Kleber and Kevin Porter Jr. twitter.com/TheNBACentral/…NBACentral@TheNBACentralJay Williams on Austin Reaves’ growth on the ball: “How do you bring back LeBron?” (h/t @jswissa8 ) 38925Jay Williams on Austin Reaves’ growth on the ball: “How do you bring back LeBron?” (h/t @jswissa8 ) https://t.co/7IKFp2cATlBro we literally took an L to Maxi Kleber and Kevin Porter Jr. twitter.com/TheNBACentral/…Bryan Oringher@BOringherNBA“People FEAR Austin Reaves.

The biggest headline was Austin Reaves scoring a career-high 35 points on 9-for-14 shooting.He followed it up with a double-double statline of 25 points (6-for-10 shooting) and 11 assists with only two turnovers in Wednesday's 122-111 win over the Phoenix Suns (38-34).With two straight quality outputs from Reaves, Lakers fans and the media have found his development promising.It will be interesting to see how the LeBron James and Austin Reaves dynamic will pan out once James comes back.The Lakers (36-37) are 10th in the Western Conference after winning two straight games and 10 of their past 15 games (7-5 with James sidelined).
