Lakers have stated previously that they want cap space open for the 2027 FA class, Reeves is playing out of his mind atm for the Lakers with Bron and Luka out, they might not think he would be a good fit next to Luka long term, and they would have to pay him an absolute bag to get him to stay, which they might not be comfortable with. Jazz's young core has looked really good to start the year, and depending on how the year goes, they could possibly want to bring in a star player. Reeves has genuine potential to be a number 1 scorer in my opinion, obv i could be wrong, but at the same time, no one said Jalen Brunson would turn into what he is, when he was the third option on the Mavs, eerily similar situation as to what is happening in LA rn. Maybe the lakers bite the bullet and don't let him walk in FA.
