[Ekipa] Austin Reaves after visiting kids with the Lakers at a hospital in Ljubljana: Reporter: “Hey Austin, what did the kids say?” AR: “They love Luka!” Reporter: “Do they love you?” AR: “They love Luka more, as they should. Luka is a hero!”
I enjoy AR constantly hyping up Luka.
You can tell they’re really good friends because they’ll say nice things about each other to other people, but only mean things to each other’s faces. True friendship.
It’s the Balkan way
SnowTime sticks together
George mikan’s spirit in the locker room will haunt them all year long
If Walker Kessler ever has to wear goggles, all of Mikans records will be in jeopardy
2 snow peas in a pod, one might say
Luka.
Until they’re together then they tease each other
Brunson did the same thing.
I mean bro was in Slovenia, its supposed to be like that
Yeah it’s like asking this question to Murray if they’re in Serbia
Bet they had tons of fun there too, its all love for our Balkan bros in the league
Also, “What did the kids say?” - they were probably speaking Slovenian.
I wonder if they had a translator, or if Luka was translating. If a kid said, “Austin, you’re my favourite player,” Luka could easily “forget” to translate that part lol.
I bet the kids in Arkansas also like Luka more.
I mean, it’s like that anywhere in the country. Not just Slovenia.
Nobody fucking knows who austin fucking reaves is outside of Lakers fans lol
Bro has no accolades under his resume to be noticed outside of LA.
No. I heard they like Laravia more.
Lukas PR team on overtime preparing for the divorce
Fr lmao they gathering proof of character for the courts
Tbh don’t think they need it, Luka has never had any off court character issues
Yea ive never seen this much PR covering him lmao even when he got traded. At least not like this where it’s painting him in a positive light. Must be a horrible position for him to be in especially with custody, he needs any win he can get
To be fair it is out of the ordinary for a NBA superstar to fly out their entire team, including 2-ways, to their native country for a summer training camp. It is a pretty cool thing that we haven’t ever seen done in this fashion before. The lakers fandom combined with the slowest part of the off season, it make sense why we are seeing so much of the trip. Think about how much we saw of Lebron’s Cavs reunion golf trip.
Did you miss the men’s health article last year? It claimed he had a 42 inch vert
At first I read your comment as divorce from the Lakers in 2 years when his contract ends… I mean it probably still will be the case. He’s going back to Dallas.
This man knows his role
Easy when you come from being undrafted
I love the vibes. I just know those weirdos who were comparing Luka to a dictator and acting like brining his team mates to his home country is slavery are lurking.
We love the Glorious Nation of Slovenia, the number one exporter of refined aluminum and First Ladies.
brining his team mates
Say whatever else you want about Luka, but the man knows how to prep food.
I love my besties duo 💜💛
I thought this was JJ Redick
There’s an interesting difference between LAL flying everyone out to Slovenia to see their star in his home country and MIN flying everyone out to France to see Gobert in his home country. Not sure what the difference is but the vibes are for sure different.
While we are on this, how cool would it be to have both Wemby and Gobert (The French Connection) and Luka and Joker (The Slowtime Lakers) on the same NBA teams?
Smh none of the kids called Pablo a hero this generation is cooked
/s
DAE wholesome
This run rivals the men’s health article
Mr Reaves is very likeable. I mean he doesn’t want to take credit belonging to Luka and just get to go by. A very different guy in the court.
It was in Slovenia makes sense
Vibes are so good now that LeBron is finally gone
“Wuka’s a herow.” Show all the snobby euros this the next time they get uppity about all their so called languages in the region.
They also play the same type of defense
WTF
Hes a god in his hometown makes sense 😭
He’s in Slovenia. Luka is a national icon and hero to probably every young boy in his home country who has ever touched a basketball. And AR is talking about kids in his hometown!
This is totally normal.
Luka left Dallas and somehow still has more fans in Ljubljana than Reaves has in his own building.
I’m not sure what the correlation is between Luka leaving Dallas and having fans in his hometown
Shit I didn’t know Slovenia has a place called Dallas
