LeBron James missed the game against the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Los Angeles Lakers were unable to take the win.

Lakers rookie Austin Reaves, who had 8 point coming off the bench against OKC, thinks that when the team’s leader is out, other players need to step up to compensate for that.

“Nobody is going to fill LeBron’s shoes but if everyone steps up and does a little more, we’ll accommodate the amount that LeBron does for us,” Reaves said postgame.
