During a recent episode of the Aarthi and Sriram podcast, Golden State Warriors veteran Andre Iguodala was asked, "Is Austin Reaves him?"
"Is he him? He's Austin Reaves," Iguodala said with a laugh. "I like Austin a lot. We've gotten to know each other a little bit. We're supposed to spend a little more time with each other. He's a big golfer, like really into golf. So when you have a guy in the NBA that's into golf, we're like our own little cult in itself. So he and I will get together and play some golf... He's a lot better than folks thought he was. He's a real basketball player, and that's why I'm a fan of his... No matter what team he's on, he's gonna help you win."
A big golfer, Iguodala has love for all NBA players who also enjoy golf. Looking forward to hitting the golf course with Reaves some time soon, Iguodala is also a fan of what he can do on the basketball court. Seeing him as a winning player, Iguodala feels that Reaves could impact winning on any team he played for, which is a strong compliment.
While it's unclear if Iguodala will come back for another season, he will likely remain involved in the NBA in some capacity, even if it's not directly with the Warriors.
