And while it may be hard for the Arkansas alum to find minutes on a roster built to contend for NBA titles, when his name is called, Walsh puts it all on the floor every minute he is on it.
The folks behind the "Boston Celtics" YouTube channel put together a clip taking a closer look at the second-year wing and what he does to help his team and his career in Boston.

Luka Doncic Sends Austin Reaves Message After Lakers Trade Report
Luka Doncic Sends Austin Reaves Message After Lakers Trade Report originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The biggest storyline for the Los Angeles Lakers' 2024-25 season was the blockbuster midseason trade that brought Luka Doncic from the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Anthony Davis. This move paired Doncic with LeBron James, creating a formidable duo to strengthen the Lakers' championship aspirations. Advertisement Following the trade, the Lakers experienced a surge in performance, finishing as the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference, with a 50-32 record. Doncic's integration into the team transformed the Lakers into a hopeful championship contender, but their run ended in the first round. While much focus was placed on the Doncic-James duo, these two stars had a high-level third option in Austin Reaves. Los Angeles Lakers teammates LeBron James (23) and Luka Doncic (77).Jason Parkhurst-Imagn Images Reaves averaged a career-high 20.2 points this past season, and has been a topic of discussion since LA was eliminated. While trade rumors have surrounding the rising star, especially as the Lakers seek an upgrade at center, Dan Woike of the LA Times reported last month that Reaves is not expected to be moved unless the Lakers get an "impossibly good offer" for him. Advertisement Just two weeks after this report, Doncic appearance on James' and Steve Nash's Mind the Game podcast. Among other things, Doncic specifically brought up Reaves, being sure to include him in a discussion about the growing chemistry between LA's best players. "I've never played with a guy like this," Doncic said of James before bringing up Reaves. "Just being traded to LA; it was different… [Us] two out there and [Austin Reaves], who's been playing unbelievable. I still think it's a work in progress." This message from Doncic adds more merit to the report from Woike that Reaves is not expected to be moved this offseason. Doncic highlighting Reaves as part of a "work in progress" trio that includes he and James certainly feels notable. Advertisement Statistically, Doncic maintained impressive numbers in LA, averaging 28.2 points, 8.1 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game since joining the Lakers. While there have also been rumors about James' and Doncic's future with the Lakers, LA's front office has maintained its commitment to building a roster that complements the duo.

Luka Doncic on the criticism that he is slow
Luka Doncic on the criticism that he is slow Although Luka Doncic has been a phenomenal NBA player over the last several years, he has recently gotten a good deal of criticism. Much of it has centered around his subpar fitness and conditioning, as well as the fact that he is pudgy and has trouble staying in front of his man defensively. One reason for his defensive shortcomings is his lack of speed and quickness, which could be partly attributed to his lack of fitness. But overall, Doncic has never been a speed demon. He was a guest on the latest episode of the "Mind the Game" podcast, which is co-hosted by LeBron James and Steve Nash. Nash brought up the Oklahoma City Thunder, who are heading to the NBA Finals thanks to a young, deep and athletic cast, and he asked Doncic about his speed, or lack thereof. The superstar gave an interesting response. "I have speed, I just don't show it," Doncic answered. There have been videos of Doncic from the 2018-19 season, when he was a rookie, posted on social media lately, and he displayed more speed and quickness back then. Since he has apparently already slimmed down this offseason, the hope appears to be that improving his fitness and conditioning heading into next season will make him quicker on both ends of the floor. According to at least one report, Doncic has changed his mindset and actions as far as taking care of his body.
