Following Sunday's loss against the New York Knicks, head coach JJ Redick told reporters that he and the Lakers hope Reaves could return on their trip to Brooklyn. But that depends on the 27-year-old's full capability to finally play.
Redick notably announced that Reaves will return at some point during their eight-game road trip. Facing the Nets will serve as the Lakers' final road assignment before heading back to Los Angeles.
Reaves hasn't played since Christmas Day after suffering from a significant left calf strain. His status will be monitored for hours leading up to the tip-off of the Lakers-Nets matchup.
The star guard was having a solid season before going down with ankle issues, averaging 26.6 points, 6.3 assists and 5.2 boards in over 50 percent shooting.
