Austin Reaves Ruled Out for Sunday's Game, Misses 19th Straight with Calf Strain

Austin Reaves (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Knicks, as reported by Dan Woike of The Athletic. Despite being considered a possibility to return, Reaves will ultimately miss his 19th consecutive game due to a left calf strain. In his continued absence, Jake LaRavia, Marcus Smart, and Gabe Vincent are expected to see expanded opportunities for the Los Angeles Lakers. Reaves' next chance to suit up will come Tuesday against the Nets.
