Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (calf) exited Friday's win over the Clippers with a calf injury. Fortunately, an MRI "revealed no serious injury, with Reaves now considered "day-to-day."

Jimmy Butler III Ruled Out Against The 76ers

Golden State Warriors forward Jimmy Butler III (back) won't play on Saturday against Philadelphia. The veteran has been bothered by back spasms, so he won't be out there versus his former team.

Nacho Alvarez Jr. Expected To Return Soon

Atlanta Braves infield prospect Nacho Alvarez Jr. (wrist) is expected to return soon. Alvarez suffered this minor wrist injury during Thursday's spring training contest.
