Reaves posted 22 points (4-16 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 12-13 FT), four rebounds, six assists and one block over 34 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 99-93 loss to the Rockets in Game 5 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.
While Reaves didn't get the start in his return from an oblique strain that had sidelined him since April 2, the fifth-year guard saw a full workload and trailed only LeBron James' 25 points in scoring on the night. Reaves seems likely to move back into the starting five for Game 6 on Friday as the Lakers try to punch their ticket to the second round.
