Austin Reaves won’t be available for Sunday’s road game against the Suns.
The Lakers star guard was one of five players the team listed on Saturday afternoon’s injury report, listing him as out against the Suns because of a bruised left heel.
Reaves had X-rays that were negative after Wednesday’s win over the Bucks.
He and the team’s medical staff determined no further imaging was needed after seeing how the former Oklahoma guard felt Thursday morning.
Reaves didn’t practice Saturday, with the team allowing the bruise to gradually heal.
Rookie wing Cameron Carr was also ruled out against the Suns because of an illness.
Collin Sexton (right orbital laceration), Adou Thiero (left ankle sprain) and Bronny James (illness) were all listed as questionable for Sunday.
Sexton has a bandage over his right eye/eyebrow area that he split open during the fourth quarter of the win over the Bucks after a collision with Ryan Rollins.
“I feel pretty good,” Sexton said after Saturday’s practice. “Was able to go through practice, just got to see how the flight goes and just go from there.”
