Lakers' Austin Reaves: Won't play Monday
Reaves won't play in Monday's game against Portland due to right groin soreness, Daniel Starkand of LakersNation.com reports.
After logging 38 minutes in Sunday's 130-120 win over the Heat, Reaves will take a seat for the first time this season. The star guard's next chance to play arrives in Wednesday's showdown against the Spurs. With Luka Doncic (lower leg) also sidelined, the red-hot Jake LaRavia will have an opportunity to handle more usage.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Double-double against Miami
Reaves racked up 26 points (9-22 FG, 4-14 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds and 11 assists across 38 minutes during Sunday's 130-120 win over the Heat.
The double-double was Reaves' fourth in seven games to begin the season, as the fifth-year guard continues to thrive as the No. 2 option for the Lakers behind Luka Doncic. Reaves has scored more than 20 points in every appearance to begin 2025-26, averaging 31.1 points, 9.3 assists, 5.1 boards, 3.0 threes and 1.4 steals in 37.9 minutes, but his usage might decline a bit once LeBron James (back) is ready to make his season debut, something that's expected to happen later this month.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Chips in 21 in Memphis
Reaves supplied 21 points (5-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 9-9 FT) while adding four rebounds, four assists and a steal in 36 minutes during Friday's 117-112 win over the Grizzlies.
With Luka Doncic back in the lineup, Reaves fell back into a supporting role and failed to reach 25 points for the first time in six games this season. Reaves will still be a key part of the Lakers' offense, especially while LeBron James (back) remains on the shelf, and the fifth-year guard is averaging 32.0 points, 9.0 assists, 5.3 boards, 2.8 threes and 1.7 steals a contest in the early going.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Career high in assists, hits GW
Reaves generated 28 points (9-24 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 7-7 FT), 16 assists, one rebound and two steals across 40 minutes of Wednesday's 116-115 win over the Timberwolves.
Reaves, after dropping 51 and 41 points in his last two games, respectively, delivered an elite total in a different category. The shooting guard tied his career high in assists, marking his third double-double of the campaign. He also drilled a game-winning 12-footer at the buzzer to give the Lakers a 3-2 record this season. Reaves is proving his breakout 2024-25 campaign wasn't a fluke, and he's averaging 34.2 points, 10.0 assists, 5.6 rebounds and 1.8 steals per game this season.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Drops 41 points in defeat
Reaves recorded 41 points (13-22 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 12-14 FT), five assists, four rebounds and three steals in 39 minutes during Monday's 122-108 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Following his career-high 51-point performance in Sunday's win over the Kings, Reaves notched his third career outing with at least 40 points. The rising star also tied the team-high marks in assists and steals. With Luka Doncic (finger/leg) expected to miss at least the next four games -- and LeBron James (sciatica) and Gabe Vincent (ankle) sidelined for an extended period -- the Lakers should continue relying heavily on Reaves to carry the offense through his scoring and playmaking.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Career performance in win
Reaves recorded 51 points (12-22 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 21-22 FT), 11 rebounds, nine assists and two steals across 39 minutes during Sunday's 127-120 win over the Kings.
The 27-year-old was given the keys to the offense Sunday with LeBron James (back) and Luka Doncic (finger) out of the lineup, and Reaves took full advantage, piling up a career-high 51 points. In addition to his impressive scoring display, He contributed a near-triple-double by adding 11 rebounds and nine assists, making him just the ninth player in NBA history to record 50-plus points, 11-plus boards and nine-plus assists in a game, and the first Laker to do it since Hall of Famer Elgin Baylor in 1963. Reaves is averaging 34.0 points, 9.7 assists, 7.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 37.3 minutes per contest through three games this season.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Double-double in blowout win
Reaves registered 25 points (9-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 11 assists and seven rebounds over 37 minutes during the Lakers' 128-110 win over the Timberwolves on Friday.
Reaves flirted with a double-double in Tuesday's loss to the Warriors on Opening Night, but he managed to reach that mark Friday while leading the Lakers in assists and finishing second in points and rebounds to Luka Doncic (49 points and 11 rebounds). Reaves will continue to serve as the Lakers' clear second option on offense behind Doncic until LeBron James (back) is cleared to return, which is expected to be in mid-November.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Expected to play Friday
Reaves is probable for Friday's game against Minnesota due to ankle discomfort, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
Reaves was a modified participant in Thursday's practice, but he's likely to play Friday. The star guard closed Tuesday's 119-109 loss to the Warriors with 26 points (9-16 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-10 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and two steals in 36 minutes, and Reaves should have more playmaking duties on his plate while LeBron James is sidelined due to a nerve issue.

Lakers' Austin Reaves: Goes for 26 points in loss
Reaves finished Tuesday's 119-109 loss to the Warriors with 26 points (9-16 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-10 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and two steals in 36 minutes.
Reaves came to play Tuesday, putting up an impressive line despite the loss. With LeBron James sidelined due to a nerve issue, Reaves is going to have to do a lot more of the heavy lifting, especially on the offensive end. Look for him to be more aggressive with the ball, playing as option 2, or even 1B at times.
