After winning eight straight games, the Los Angeles Lakers will continue their road trip on Saturday, taking on Paolo Banchero and the Orlando Magic at the Kia Center.
Although the Lakers have been relatively healthy on this long road trip in the final stretch of the 2025-26 NBA regular season, the team may be without rising star guard Austin Reaves.
Austin Reaves Listed as Questionable vs. Magic
Heading into Thursday’s game against the Miami Heat, Reaves was listed as questionable along with fellow Lakers stars Luka Doncic and LeBron James. However, all three players were ultimately cleared to play.
Ahead of Saturday’s game in Orlando, Reaves has been listed as questionable once again due to right hip soreness, while neither James nor Doncic was listed on Friday’s injury report.
Veteran forward Maxi Kleber remains out as he continues to work his way back from a lumbar strain. He’ll miss a seventh straight game, with his next opportunity to return to the floor being against the Detroit Pistons on Monday at Little Caesars Arena.
