Austin Reaves ruled out ahead of Suns-Lakers

The Los Angeles Lakers will be without star guard Austin Reaves (left heel contusion/bone bruise) when they face the Phoenix Suns on Sunday afternoon.

It will be Reaves’ second missed game of the season after missing Monday’s game against the Atlanta Hawks.

Other Lakers players questionable for Sunday’s game include:

• Bronny James (Illness)
• Collin Sexton (Right orbital laceration)
• Thiero Adou (Left ankle sprain)

Quentin Grimes (right finger splint) will be available.

The only player on the injury report for the Suns is Mark Williams, who had surgery in September and was expected to be out for at least five months.
