Austin Reaves has been an iron man for the Los Angeles Lakers, though he was recently forced to miss time due to a back injury he sustained against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Reaves took a hard fall and finished the game, but was held out the next five games presumably due to pain and soreness.
However, Reaves was able to return against the Minnesota Timberwolves and was happy to be back on the court despite the loss.
After the Lakers’ recent win against the Memphis Grizzlies, Reaves admitted it was hard for him to sit out.
