Austin Reaves managed to poke fun at both himself and Luka Dončić following his fantastic 43-point game in Sunday's 121-116 win over the Detroit Pistons.

Reaves joked that the banked-in three he made in the third quarter was the sort of "bulls--t" shot that Dončić would take:

Reaves, 28, had it all going on Sunday, finishing 14-of-27 from the field, 4-of-6 from three and 11-of-11 from the charity stripe. He also added five rebounds and four assists, doing a little bit of everything while Dončić watched from the sidelines due to lower-back tightness .

The Lakers moved to 9-2 in the process, tied with the Philadelphia 76ers for the best record in the NBA.
