Austin Reaves' status is up in the air after checking himself out midway through the third quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers' road game against the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday, Nov. 11.
The Lakers star was seen walking back to the locker room with a limp accompanied by team training staff after subbing out at the 5:20 mark in the third. Reaves had attempted a fast-break dunk three minutes earlier but was blocked from behind and looked uncomfortable from that point on.
