Overview
- Davis surprised former Lakers teammate Austin Reaves on his TBS show Foul Play by staging a fake charity contest that made Reaves believe he owed two contestants $250,000 each plus two cars.
- The ruse, which used actors and involved Reaves’s girlfriend Jenna Barber as an inside accomplice, ended with Davis revealing the prank and the two embracing on camera.
- Davis said on the episode that Reaves was the one former Lakers teammate he misses most, a remark outlets reported after the show aired this week.
- Reaves is expected to enter unrestricted free agency this offseason and multiple outlets have speculated he could command near $40 million per year, a decision that would affect the Lakers’ roster plans.
- The episode highlights how personal relationships persist after major moves—Davis was traded in the Luka Dončić deal and later moved to the Mavericks and Wizards—and it raises what to watch in free‑agency negotiations and team chemistry discussions.
