The Los Angeles Lakers are at risk of being without forward Jake LaRavia for Game 3 with an ankle sprain.
Lakers head coach JJ Redick shared with the media that LaRavia has a minor ankle sprain and is listed as day-to-day.
LaRavia suffered the injury in the fourth quarter of Game 2 against the Houston Rockets. He left the contest and has since been diagnosed with a sprain.
The fourth-year forward's status is unclear a day before Game 3. His status will become clearer closer to game time. Through two games thus far, LaRavia is averaging 3.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 17 minutes.
Lakers Continue Strong Play Without Stars
If LaRavia is out, look for Los Angeles to lean more on Jarred Vanderbilt or possibly give Dalton Knecht some run in these playoffs.
This is the last thing the Lakers needed as they are already down two of their best players, Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves.
