LOS ANGELES (AP) — Austin Reaves could miss at least a month with a strained left calf, a damaging blow for the struggling Los Angeles Lakers.
The Lakers said Friday that Reaves had been diagnosed with a grade 2 left gastrocnemius strain. He will be evaluated again in approximately four weeks.
Reaves didn’t play in the second half of the Lakers’ 119-96 loss to Houston on Thursday. He had 12 points before leaving what became Los Angeles’ third straight defeat.
That was Reaves’ second game back after he had missed three in a row, also with a strained left calf. He is second on the Lakers behind Luka Doncic with 26.6 points per game.
