The Los Angeles Lakers have ruled out Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves, Marcus Smart, Deandre Ayton, Jake LaRavia and Bronny James (ankle sprain) for Wednesday’s preseason game against the Dallas Mavericks in Las Vegas.

Luka Doncic lightened the mood by jokingly telling Austin Reaves, “Alright, that's enough," after Reaves got hurt in Sunday's game.
