Los Angeles Lakers' Austin Reaves has addressed Luka Doncic's hamstring injury amid a difficult season.
The Lakers have had quite an up-and-down season so far, with the squad securing a win in Brooklyn on Tuesday, and on Thursday, their star player exited the game with a hamstring injury.
While the win, with a score of 119-115, was bagged by the Lakers against the Philadelphia 76ers, Luka limped off the court in the second quarter and was ruled out for the rest of the match.
Following Luka's exit, Austin handled the pressure well with a spectacular fourth quarter. Discussing his teammate's injury, the 27-year-old expressed his hope that the injury won't cause the Slovenian player to miss the court for long.
"Hopefully nothing major. We need him, he's our best player and the engine [for] a lot of the stuff we do. Hopefully we get good news tomorrow and I wish him nothing but the best," said Austin.
Luka Doncic is giving a spectacular performance this season. If he ends up missing significant time, the Lakers will heavily depend on LeBron James and Austin Reaves until he fully recovers.
