Thu Mar 621:02Austin Reaves Good To Go Thursday
Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (calf) will suit up for Thursday's clash against the New York Knicks. He's back in the fold after sitting out a couple of games due to a calf strain. Reaves' return is unfortunate for Gabe Vincent, who will once again have to settle for a bench role, even though he didn't do a lot in the two spot starts he had. Before getting hurt in a matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers last week, Reaves had been on a tear, averaging 23.5 points, 4.6 rebounds, 6.1 assists, and 1.5 steals over an 11-game stretch.

Wed Mar 521:22Austin Reaves On Track To Play Thursday
Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (calf) is listed as probable ahead of Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. Reaves appears to be on track to make his return to the court after missing each of the last two games. When healthy, Reaves has been a force on the court lately with a four-game streak of 20 points or more before that ended when he got injured against the Los Angeles Clippers last Friday. The 26-year-old is a must-start once he gets back on the court. Gabe Vincent figures to lose playing time once Reaves returns, but he wasn't offering much value right now anyway.

Mon Mar 320:43Austin Reaves Questionable Against New Orleans
Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (calf) is questionable for Tuesday's game against New Orleans. He suffered a calf injury during Friday's win over the Clippers, ending his evening after just nine minutes of work. While an MRI showed no significant damage, it still kept him off the floor when the Lakers and Clippers met again on Sunday night. Luka Doncic (knee) is also questionable, so Reaves could see an uptick in usage on Tuesday. However, if Reaves and Doncic are both sidelined, LeBron James (foot), who is probable, will likely handle the ball more than usual. Gabe Vincent, who had nine points on Sunday as a member of the starting lineup, could also be in line for increased fantasy production.

With Goodwin doubtful, Vincent might find himself in the starting lineup on Sunday. However, LeBron James (foot) and Luka Doncic (calf), combining for 59 points on Friday, should continue to lead the way on the scoring end, assuming they are available.

Wed Feb 1220:09Austin Reaves Cleared For Action Wednesday
Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (elbow) is good to go for Wednesday's tilt against the Utah Jazz. He has been upgraded from probable to available, paving the way for Reaves to make his 28th consecutive appearance. The 26-year-old has had a huge month, averaging 27.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, 6.0 assists, and 2.0 steals in 33.4 minutes. Luka Doncic's addition to the backcourt is bound to have an impact on Reaves, but Doncic will continue to play with a minutes restriction on Wednesday.

Reaves dropped a 44-point game last week and has finished with 20 points or more in each of his last five games. Reaves is looking like a must-start in all fantasy formats right now.

However, he felt fine after pre-game warmups, so he's officially good to go.

Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (elbow) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Oh no, the Lakers could be in trouble with Luka Doncic (calf) ruled out and LeBron James (ankle) questionable as well.

If he sits, Gabe Vincent and Shake Milton figure to see increased roles in the rotation. Neither of them are extremely appealing streaming choices, but Vincent is the better choice between the two.
