How Austin Reaves is covering this GM Rob Pelinka mistake

It hasn't been easy for the Los Angeles Lakers to correct their ways after some terrible previous seasons, and GM Rob Pelinka has made some significant mistakes that have made the team suffer as a consequence.

After the lousy management that Pelinka had handling the Alex Caruso situation and letting him part ways as a free agent, he is having luck that a rookie is making fans forget about the now Chicago Bulls player.

Austin Reaves has been a revelation for everyone, from their teammates to the Lakers coaching staff and the welcoming fans. Reaves has proven in a short time that he has some skills and talents but the energy to give his 100% and beyond.

Reaves' performance is making Pelinka look good, but the truth is that the GM had a terrible mistake with the release of Caruso and has to learn from that to not repeat the same misstep in the future with Austin.
