Any Los Angeles Lakers game in which Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves both exit with injuries is going to be concerning, but it appears the team has dodged any serious fallout.Two days after the Lakers’ two leading scorers left a win over the Milwaukee Bucks, head coach JJ Redick told reporters Friday that he expects Dončić to be available for Sunday’s game against the Phoenix Suns. Dončić had already told reporters he was “good” the night of the injury, which was a tweaked ankle.As for Reaves, Redick said the guard was day-to-day with a bruise on his heel, but the matter is apparently minor enough the team didn’t even bother with imaging on the foot.“AR, based on his physical evaluation and how he was feeling yesterday, we opted against imaging. He’ll be day-to-day. We’ll have him on the report tomorrow at 5 o’clock.“Even with their early exits Friday, no pair of teammates is averaging more com,bined points per game than Dončić and Reaves. Dončić leads the league in scoring with 38.6 points per game, while Reaves if 15th with 24.7. Dončić is also ninth in the league in assists per game at 7.6.Rotation guard Collin Sexton also exited Friday’s game a collision with Bucks guard Ryan Rollins. He needed stitches above his right eye, but Redick said a concussion was ruled out and he’s “probably in the same boat” as Reaves.The Lakers-Suns game is scheduled for 1 p.m. PT on Sunday in Phoenix.
