The question regarding whether Luka Doncic or Austin Reaves will return in time for the Houston Rockets' postseason matchup has officially been answered.

While the starting backcourt is trying to return during the first round of the playoffs, coach JJ Redick and team work hard to prepare for Rockets.

More than not having Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves, Coach JJ Redick knows these factors in the NBA Playoffs will cause LeBron James and the Lakers to lose vs. the Rockets.

Austin Reaves, the Los Angeles Lakers guard who has raised his production each season he has been in the NBA, will not be available to play when the Lakers begin their first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets on Saturday.
