What happened

Dončić said he was “good” after rolling his right ankle in the fourth quarter, and JJ Redick described the issue as a tweak.

Reaves left Wednesday’s win with a left heel injury, had negative X-rays, and is scheduled for more imaging Thursday as the Lakers await clarity.

LINEUP CONTEXT

If Reaves misses time, Los Angeles may need a temporary backcourt adjustment; Dončić’s status appears less worrisome but still merits monitoring.
