Lakers' Austin Reaves to undergo medical imaging after injuring heel
Before being forced to leave the game, Austin Reaves had 18 points and 5 assists in 25 minutes of action.

Lakers guard Austin Reaves will undergo further testing after suffering an ankle injury in Wednesday’s 123-112 win over the Bucks, according to head coach JJ Redick.

Early in the third quarter, Reaves went up for a dunk attempt, seemed to injure his left heel, and ended his night early.

Reaves, who entered play averaging 25.2 points, finished with 18 points, five assists, three rebounds, and three steals while shooting 6-for-10 from the field and 1-for-3 from beyond the arc in 25 minutes of action.

He played 51 games in 2025-26, suffering multiple calf strains, as well as a left oblique strain late in the season.

Luka Dončić also tweaked his ankle late in the contest, but avoided significant injury, Redick said.

This story will be updated as more information becomes available.
