Austin Reaves didn’t just put on a show for Lakers fans-he also delivered a life-changing surprise for his older brother, Spencer. During the Lakers’ matchup against the Indiana Pacers at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Reaves found a unique way to reveal the gender of his brother’s baby.
Instead of a traditional announcement, the Lakers star let his sneakers do the talking. Rocking pink and white kicks, Reaves sent a clear message: Spencer and his wife, Casey, are expecting a baby girl.

A heartwarming reaction from Spencer
Spencer, who plays professional basketball in Germany, couldn’t have been more excited about the reveal. Seeing his younger brother share the news in such a special way left him in awe.
“Appreciate you!” Spencer said, clearly touched by Austin’s gesture.
The moment was even more meaningful considering Reaves had kept the secret for weeks, waiting for the perfect opportunity to make the announcement.
A winning night for Austin Reaves
As if the gender reveal wasn’t exciting enough, Reaves made sure the night ended on an even higher note. He played a key role in the Lakers‘ victory over the Pacers, scoring 24 points to help his team secure the win. And in classic LeBron James fashion, the King sealed the deal with a game-winning shot.
When asked about LeBron’s heroics, Reaves had nothing but admiration.
“He’s a winner at heart,” Reaves said. “That’s really it. He’s done this for a long time.”
For Reaves, it was a night of celebration on all fronts-a family milestone, a personal highlight, and a big win for the Lakers.
A true win-win for Austin.
