Lakers' Austin Reaves: Notches 17 points in loss
Reaves had 17 points (6-14 FG, 5-12 3Pt), seven rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal in 35 minutes during Sunday's 116-113 loss to Minnesota in Game 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Despite a solid stat line, Reaves had a difficult fourth quarter, hitting 2-of-7 from the field in that frame -- he also missed a potential game-tying three-pointer at the end of regulation. With the Lakers down 3-1, the series will shift back to Minnesota for Game 5 on Wednesday.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Struggles from deep in win
Reaves provided 16 points (7-14 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and five assists in 43 minutes during Tuesday's 94-85 win over Minnesota in Game 2 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
Reaves hasn't had the best series throughout two games, with the rising star especially struggling from beyond the arc, going a combined 3-for-14. The 26-year-old guard will have another shot to get back on track Friday, with the series now shifting to Minnesota for the next two games.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Will play Game 1
Reaves (ankle) is not on the injury report ahead of Saturday's Game 1 against Minnesota.
Reaves was held out of the Lakers' regular-season finale against the Trail Blazers due to a right ankle sprain, but that won't be an issue for him for the start of the postseason. He's coming off the best regular season of his four-year NBA career, averaging career highs in points (20.2), assists (5.8), rebounds (4.5) and steals (1.1) while connecting on 37.7 percent of his three-point attempts across 73 games.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Expected to play in Game 1
Reaves (ankle) is expected to be available for the postseason.
Reaves missed Sunday's regular-season finale against the Trail Blazers due to a right ankle sprain, but the Lakers were locked into the No. 3 seed, so his absence was likely precautionary. Across 73 regular-season appearances, Reaves averaged career highs in points (20.2), assists (5.8), rebounds (4.5) and steals (1.1) per game.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Not playing vs. Portland
Reaves is out for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a right ankle sprain, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
There's a strong case to say Reaves has been the Lakers' second-best player, even ahead of LeBron James, in recent weeks, but he'll get some much-needed rest for this contest. The Lakers already locked up the third seed in the Western Conference, meaning Reaves will get some much-needed time off. The star guard ends the 2024-25 season with averages of 20.2 points, 5.8 assists and 4.2 rebounds per game across 73 starts, with the points and assists per game being new career-high marks for him.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Goes for 23 points in blowout win
Reaves accumulated 23 points (9-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Friday's 140-109 win over Houston.
Luka Doncic was dominant on offense and LeBron James was limited to only 22 minutes, so Reaves stepped up and operated as the Lakers' second-best offensive weapon in what turned out to be a blowout victory. Reaves is heading into the playoffs in a good run of form and has scored at least 20 points in five of his last six outings, averaging 23.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game in that span.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Takes backseat to Doncic in win
Reaves finished Wednesday's 112-97 win over the Mavericks with 11 points (4-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal in 38 minutes.
Reaves took a backseat to Luka Doncic's 45 points Wednesday, turning in his lowest scoring output since March 6. Even so, Reaves is still averaging 24.9 points, 5.5 assists, 4.8 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 3.5 three-pointers in 37.1 minutes across his last 15 contests. During this span, Reaves is shooting a sparkling 51.4 percent from the field, 41.3 percent from downtown and 89.9 percent from the free-throw line.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Will suit up against Thunder
Reaves (ankle) will play in Tuesday's game against the Thunder, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
Originally labeled as questionable and then upgraded to probable, Reaves and the rest of the Lakers' usual starting lineup will be available for Tuesday's showdown with Oklahoma City. The star guard shouldn't face any limitations, although it's worth noting Los Angeles has a short turnaround Wednesday against the Mavericks. Reaves has averaged 24.6 points, 4.6 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 3.6 three-pointers in 36.5 minutes over his last nine appearances.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Upgraded to probable
Reaves (ankle) has been listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Thunder, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
Reaves, much like many notable players on the Lakers, was listed as questionable for Tuesday's game in Oklahoma City. However, that has changed, with the up-and-coming guard likely to play against the Thunder. The 26-year-old rising star is averaging career-high numbers in points (20.2), rebounds (4.5), assists (5.8) and steals (1.1) this season.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Iffy for Tuesday
Reaves is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Thunder due to a sprained right ankle, Ryan Ward of LakersNation.com reports.
Given that Tuesday is the first half of a back-to-back, the Lakers may elect to keep Reaves off the court in one game or the other. LeBron James and Luka Doncic are both uncertain to play due to groin strains, so Los Angeles may have a lot of usage to soak up. Reaves has averaged 24.6 points, 4.6 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 3.6 three-pointers in 36.5 minutes over his last nine outings.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Hits for 20 in win
Reaves recorded 20 points (7-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 34 minutes during Sunday's 126-99 victory over the Thunder.
The fourth-year guard continues to be a terror from long range. Reaves has scored at least 20 points in 12 of his last 14 appearances and drained at least three three-pointers 10 times, averaging 26.1 points, 5.5 assists, 5.1 boards, 3.6 threes and 1.2 steals over that span while shooting 52.5 percent from the floor and 42.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Continues to hum from deep
Reaves amassed 30 points (8-13 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 8-9 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 36 minutes during Friday's 124-108 victory over the Pelicans.
Reaves achieved a distinctive honor, becoming the first Laker to drill 15 three-pointers over two games this season. He's made 188 three-pointers this season, which ranks 20th in the NBA. Reaves was a key piece of the team's late-season surge last season and will be critical as they jockey for playoff position this year.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Keeps rolling with 31-point effort
Reaves accumulated 31 points (10-20 FG, 9-16 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal over 40 minutes during Thursday's 123-116 loss to Golden State.
Reaves' 20.1 point-per game average is blowing his previous seasonal averages out of the water, and he's kept his production high despite Luka Doncic's arrival in the backcourt. Over the past five games, the Oklahoma product has averaged a remarkable 25.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.0 steals.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Leads Los Angeles in win
Reaves notched 31 points (8-16 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 10-10 FT), eight assists, seven rebounds, one block and one steal over 37 minutes during Saturday's 134-127 win over Memphis.
Reaves stuffed the stat sheet and led the Lakers with a game high in points, marking his eighth outing with at least 30 points on the season. The rising star also delivered an efficient performance from beyond the arc, following a five-game stretch in which he had shot only 27.0 percent from downtown. The fourth-year guard has been impressive across 13 appearances this month, averaging 24.2 points, 5.6 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 2.9 three-pointers and 1.0 steals across 36.4 minutes per contest.
