Ruled out Thursday Reaves (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Bucks, Khobi Price of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Reaves will miss the second game of a back-to-back for the Lakers while nursing a sprained right ankle. Los Angeles will be very shorthanded Thursday against the Bucks, with Luka Doncic (ankle) also ruled out and Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle) and Jarred Vanderbilt (groin) currently listed as doubtful. The team will likely lean on Jordan Goodwin, Shake Milton, Dalton Knecht and Bronny James to shoulder the load.

Posts solid line in blowout Reaves provided 22 points (8-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, eight assists, one block and two steals across 36 minutes during Wednesday's 120-108 victory over Denver.

Impact Revas continued to step up in a big way amid LeBron James' (groin) absence, and he's a big reason why the team has gone 3-3 since losing the All-Star. Reaves is averaging 27.0 points, 7.7 assists, 6.7 rebounds and 1.7 steals over the last six games without James, and the proficient Oklahoma product shows no signs of slowing down.

Leads team with 30-point effort Reaves registered 30 points (12-21 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and two steals across 36 minutes during Monday's 125-109 win over the Spurs.

Impact Reaves has firmly established himself as the Lakers' third offense option behind LeBron James (groin) and Luka Doncic, but he's enjoying a more significant responsibility as a scoring weapon due to the absence of James. Reaves has scored at least 28 points in his last four contests, averaging 30.8 points and shooting 52.9 percent from the floor in that span. He should continue to be one of the Lakers' go-to options on offense as long as James remains sidelined, meaning he'll have a considerable uptick in his fantasy value in the short term.
