Streak Reaches Seven
The Los Angeles Lakers moved their winning streak to seven games behind a 123-112 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. The contest took place in Milwaukee and featured several injury concerns for the visitors during the second half that limited playing time for multiple rotation members.
Reaves Exits With Heel Issue
Austin Reaves produced 18 points on 6-for-10 shooting along with five assists and three steals across 25 minutes. He left the floor after landing awkwardly on a missed fast-break dunk late in the third quarter. Reaves returned briefly following a timeout before subbing out at the 5:20 mark and limping to the locker room. Initial X-rays on his left heel came back negative, and he will undergo further evaluation upon the team's return home.
Other Players Face Scares
Luka Doncic reached 32 points but turned his right ankle on a long jump shot attempt late in the fourth quarter. He remained in the game and indicated he would be fine. Collin Sexton departed with 6:51 left in the fourth after bumping heads and required stitches above his right eye. The upcoming schedule provides several days before the next contest on the road against the Phoenix Suns.
