He is one of the Lakers' best players, wanted a picture with Will Ferrell, what happened is hilarious

The Los Angeles Lakers made the NBA a spectacle after Dr. Jerry Buss bought the franchise and "created" the showtime era with Magic Johnson,  Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and other stars.

Since then, the team has gained a massive number of celebrity fans, having probably what is the largest famous fanbase as every game is filled with familiar celebrities, from actors, athletes, singers, and more.

Being one of the young promises of the team, Austin Reaves 25 years of age, is understandable why he has a hilarious anecdote with one of the best Hollywood comedians out there, Will Ferrell.

"This might be the only time in my life that I actually ask for a picture. And he's walking towards us, just walking and talking to people. And I go to introduce myself, and he was like, 'AUSTIN, I'm a huge fan.' And I didn't even know what to say. I was just like, 'Uhhhhh. Me too.'" Austin Reaves on meeting actor/comedian and Lakers fan Will Ferrell for the first time. With information via Dan Woike.

Austin Reaves is no longer a young promise but for real

While many NBA fans still believe that Austin Reaves is an overrated player, his Team USA teammates have his back, showing the Lakers star is a real star and no longer a promising player. "This ain’t no underdog shit no more. He’s here.” Said Mikal Bridges. “He does all the right things - EVERY basketball guy, the ones that know - really, really love Austin.” Said, Brandon Ingram.
