Austin Reaves on Track to Return Wednesday
Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (oblique) is "optimistic" about returning to action in Game 5 against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports. He is nearing a return from an oblique strain and has been a game-time decision a couple of times in the series. Reaves hasn't played since April 2, so expecting him to have his usual workload in his first game back seems unrealistic. But his return will be a big boost for the Lakers, who will try to finish off Houston for the second time on Wednesday night. If Reaves returns, Luke Kennard will likely be pushed to the second unit, which would negatively affect his fantasy appeal.
