Austin Reaves and Team USA continue with a perfect record in the FIBA World Cup, as they are 4-0 and in the second round. When the name of Reaves was announced to be part of the United States roster, many NBA fans were outraged believing it was a wasted spot, but Austin was fas to convince his detractors.

Now that Team USA started early today the second round, the head coach Steve Kerr made some adjustments in the lineup, as Brandon Ingram had a coming-off-the-bench role instead of starting, affecting some of Austin's game.

Having Reaves and Ingram as part of the second unit has decreased Austin's touches and scoring production. When asked about it, Reaves gave a shocking answer, as the Lakers star is just happy to contribute.

"I don't really care as long as at the end of the day we win gold and I'll go home with the biggest smile on my face." Said Austin Reaves who wants to win with Team USA.
