Austin Reaves upgraded to questionable for Lakers' Game 3 against Rockets
Austin Reaves has been upgraded to questionable for Game 3 of the Los Angeles Lakers’ first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets.
The Lakers made the designation on their high-scoring guard Thursday while the team flew to Houston.
Los Angeles has a surprising 2-0 series lead heading into Game 3 despite playing without Luka Doncic and Reaves, its top two scorers.
Reaves hasn’t played for the Lakers since he strained his oblique muscles and Doncic strained his hamstrings in a game at Oklahoma City on April 2, but he returned to on-court basketball activities over the past few days.
