The Lakers got a huge win tonight against the Chicago Bulls, and Austin Reaves didn't waste the opportunity to get back to Pat Bev

Karma hit the former Lakers PG Patrick Beverley, who gave the "too small" gesture on Sunday night to LeBron James, who returned after missing out one month.

For his second game and still injured, LeBron James bounced back with an outstanding performance starting the game; he scored 25 points and had great chemistry again with Anthony Davis.

But Austin Reaves stole the night after scoring 19 points and having five assists but overall because he owned Pat Bev by hitting him with the "too small" gesture as a payback from Sunday when Bev did that to LeBron James.

When asked about it, LeBron James said, "AR always got my back. Always. Even though he loved Kobe back in the day more than me. I forgive him." The latter part probably refers to Reaves's old posts that recently became viral.

The Lakers are now in the 8th seed after the huge win

The purple and gold didn't disappoint tonight, and with the best starting five of the season, the team got the win and is now back to the 8th seed with the .500 mark.
