Won't play Sunday
Reaves (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Knicks, Dan Woike of The Athletic reports.
Analyse
Reaves was considered a possibility to return Sunday but will ultimately miss his 19th straight game due to a left calf strain. In his continued absence, Jake LaRavia, Marcus Smart and Gabe Vincent should keep seeing expanded opportunities. Reaves' next chance to suit up will come Tuesday against the Nets.

Questionable to face New York
Reaves (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Knicks.
Analyse
Reaves hasn't played since Dec. 25 due to a left calf strain but has a chance to return to action Sunday. The 27-year-old guard will likely operate under a minutes restriction in the short term once he's cleared to play, though his eventual return will leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Jake LaRavia, Marcus Smart and Gabe Vincent.

Ruled out Friday
Reaves (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Wizards, Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com reports.
Analyse
Reaves hasn't played since Dec. 25 due to a left calf strain, but he's progressing in his recovery and is seemingly nearing a return to action after initially being listed as questionable for Friday's matchup. His next opportunity to play will come Sunday against the Knicks. Until Reaves is cleared to play, Jake LaRavia, Marcus Smart and Gabe Vincent will likely continue to see increased minutes.

Questionable for Friday
Reaves is questionable for Friday's game against the Wizards with a left calf strain, Broderick Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analyse
The questionable tag is an encouraging sign, giving Reaves a chance to suit up for the first time since Dec. 25. If the star guard is finally ready to return to action, Marcus Smart's fantasy value could take a considerable hit. Fewer minutes would be open to Jarred Vanderbilt as well.

Won't play Wednesday
Reaves (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Analyse
Reaves has been cleared for full-contact work at practice and is expected to return during the Lakers' current road trip. However, he'll remain sidelined Wednesday. With the 27-year-old guard unavailable, Gabe Vincent, Jake LaRavia and Marcus Smart are candidates for increased playing time. Reaves' next opportunity to return will come Friday against the Wizards.
