Head coach J.J. Redick told reporters that the star guard will be returning to the starting lineup and won't be under a minute restriction in the Lakers' Christmas Day matchup against the Houston Rockets.
Reaves notably came off the bench in the Lakers' 132-108 loss against the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday. That game marked his return after a three-game absence due to a left calf strain.
He dropped 17 points, two boards and two assists on a losing effort.
Meanwhile, the Lakers also announced a major status update regarding Luka Doncic.
