After losing Game 2 on the road Thursday night, the Lakers are now down 2-0 to the Nuggets in the Western Conference finals.
Do you know what was on everyone's minds after the game? Austin Reaves' hair is a mess. Okay, maybe not everyone was talking about it, but it became one of the funniest jokes of the NBA playoffs.
The Lakers guard had a great night. He tied LeBron James for the team high with 22 points. But he will always be known for just showing up at a press meeting after the game.
After the Lakers' Game 2 loss to the Nuggets, Austin Reaves was quickly transformed into a very hilarious music meme.
