Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (calf) is officially listed as doubtful for Sunday's rematch with the Clippers. He played sparingly in Friday's win over the Clippers, amassing six points before exiting after nine minutes of work. As a result, Gabe Vincent (ankle) and Jordan Goodwin saw more action. With Goodwin doubtful, Vincent might find himself in the starting lineup on Sunday. However, LeBron James (foot) and Luka Doncic (calf), combining for 59 points on Friday, should continue to lead the way on the scoring end, assuming they are available.


Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic (calf) is questionable for Sunday's rematch with the Clippers. The former Maverick was questionable heading into Friday's win over the Clippers. However, he was available and finished with a game-high 31 points. With Austin Reaves (calf) doubtful and LeBron James (foot) questionable, Doncic could see an increase in fantasy production, assuming he's available. But if he's not out there, Gabe Vincent may enter the starting lineup, although he's not a reliable fantasy performer.


Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (calf) exited Friday's win over the Clippers with a calf injury. Fortunately, an MRI "revealed no serious injury, with Reaves now considered "day-to-day." As a result, there's a chance fantasy managers could see him in the lineup for Sunday's rematch with the Clippers. Of course, the Lakers will take it easy on Reaves, especially with the postseason right around the corner. If he's sidelined on Sunday, Gabe Vincent and Jordan Goodwin could enter the starting lineup. However, Luka Doncic and LeBron James, combining for 59 points on Friday night, should remain in line for more production.


Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura (knee) will miss Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers and currently has no timetable for his return. Hachimura was injured during Thursday's matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves and was diagnosed with a left knee strain. According to Lakers head coach JJ Redick, Hachimura underwent imaging on his knee on Friday. He added that the team is "optimistic" about Hachimura's injury. Dorian Finney-Smith will take Hachimura's place in the starting lineup against the Clippers.


Los Angeles Lakers center Jaxson Hayes (hip) will be active on Friday against the Los Angeles Clippers. He has received a couple of upgrades throughout the day and has now officially been listed as available. On Thursday night against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Hayes put together one of his most productive performances of the season, finishing a 111-102 win with 10 points, seven rebounds, one block, and one steal. He will likely have a tougher evening on Friday against the Clippers, who have Ivica Zubac as a big presence under the rim.
