He has a grade 2 strain of his left calf and will be reevaluated in four weeks, the team announced Friday evening.

Lakers coach JJ Redick and star guard Luka Doncic say the team must change and get back on track after a 119-96 loss to the Houston Rockets Thursday.

Lakers guard Austin Reaves doesn't play in the second half because of left calf soreness before the Lakers lose to Houston for their third straight loss.

Coach JJ Redick says the Lakers will not make all the correct choices, but "can you make the vast majority of 'em correctly? It gives you a chance to win."

Austin Reaves returns from a calf injury, but the Lakers struggle mightily on defense, giving up 45 points in the third quarter of a 132-108 loss.

JJ Redick and his staff are working to limit the contact Luka Doncic takes during games as the Lakers cope with a persistent injury bug.

After Luka Doncic's injury, LeBron James tried to exploit weaknesses during the Lakers' loss to the Clippers Saturday night at the Intuit Dome.

Lakers star Luka Doncic sustained a left leg contusion against the Clippers and was ruled out for the remainder of the game.

The NBA levied the fine after the 31-year-old guard made the gesture as he walked off the court at halftime following an exchange of words with a game official.
