Summary
- Austin Reaves upgraded to questionable for Game 3 against Houston.
- The Lakers hold a surprising 2-0 series lead without key players.
- Reaves and Doncic are the Lakers' top two scorers, both injured.
Austin Reaves, a key guard for the Los Angeles Lakers, has been upgraded to questionable for Game 3 of their first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets. This designation was made Thursday as the team traveled to Houston.
The Lakers hold a surprising 2-0 series lead heading into Game 3 on Friday night. This advantage was achieved despite playing without their top two scorers, Reaves and Luka Doncic, who have both been sidelined with injuries.
Reaves has not played since straining his oblique muscles on April 2, but he has recently returned to on-court basketball activities. Coach JJ Redick provided no update on the exact return schedule for his injured starters before the team's flight.
