More on this storyline
Christopher Hine: I asked Naz Reid if there was something about playing the Lakers here that he likes — the arena, the lighting, whatever … “I just stand out in the light. I don’t know. I just go out there and compete each and every time I get a chance to play. It just happened to be on TV.” -via Twitter @ChristopherHine / April 8, 2024
Christopher Hine: Naz Reid on a potential 6th man of the year award: “That’s something that I want. I’m hungry for it. I want that. I think the impact, the record has shown it, our standing has shown it. I want it bad. I’m hungry for it.” -via Twitter @ChristopherHine / April 8, 2024
