A cut above the rest.

Spain are men's World Cup winners for the second time.

Ferran Torres' fine strike in the second half of extra time earned them a 1-0 win over 10-man Argentina — and glory on football's grandest stage.

Already European champions, Luis de la Fuente's side now rule the football world — much like they did during their golden era between 2008 and 2012. Lamine Yamal, who has only just turned 19, already has a World Cup and European championship to his name.

Total control and rarely shaken off their stride — they only conceded one goal throughout the entire tournament — you wouldn't bet against this Spain side achieving more glory in the coming years.

The Lakers and Reaves' agents, Aaron Reilly and Reggie Berry of AMR Agency, worked through discussions over the last 10 days after teams were able to negotiate with their own free agents. Reaves lands the richest contract for an undrafted player in NBA history.
