All true. Plus when he played the Lakers he was not getting to the line a ton and Lakers defense locked in on him. But my Argument is i dont think...
Trade him to Hawks. I would love for Lakers to get in on the action and get Jaylen Johnson
If The league take away foul bait Lakers will need to take a hard look at paying Austin top dollar because that would be parts of his game gone.
