Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves has been upgraded to questionable for Game 3 against the Houston Rockets. Reaves suffered a left oblique strain on April 2 against the Oklahoma City Thunder, exactly three weeks ago. He is progressing well and started one-on-one on-court work, with the next step being three-on-three and five-on-five progressions. Reaves played exceptionally well this season, averaging 23.3 points per game, 5.5 assists, and 4.7 rebounds in 51 games. The Lakers are up 2-0 in the series and will head to Houston for Games 3 and 4. Luka Doncic remains out due to a hamstring strain.
