The 25-year-old Lakers guard, who joined Los Angeles as an undrafted free agent, has emerged as a key piece in the L.A. rotation and was even selected to play on the 2023 U.S. national team in the FIBA World Cup. Quite a glow up. Reaves made headlines last year when he declared himself (and not Curry) as the best golfer in the NBA. “Hey, I’m down to play golf whenever, wherever against anybody,” Reaves said during an appearance on The Lowe Post. “I love golf so much, I’d go play Tiger. Obviously, I don’t have any expectation of winning that one…but I would love to play against Steph.” We want to see that.
2. Steph Curry – Handicap: 2
