Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves is expected to return from a groin injury for Monday's road game against the Charlotte Hornets after missing the last three games.
Reaves had been listed as questionable to face the Hornets but was upgraded to probable after shootaround on Monday.
Reaves, 27, was off to a hot start with 31.1 points and 9.3 assists per game over the Lakers' first seven contests. He had a 51-point game Oct. 26 against the Sacramento Kings and a 41-point game one night later against the Portland Trail Blazers.
The Lakers opened the season 7-2 before falling 122-102 at Atlanta on Saturday to open a five-game road trip.
Los Angeles remains without star LeBron James, who has not played this season as he deals with sciatica. He was just cleared for contact basketball activity in practice but is not expected to play on the current road trip.
The Lakers' next home game is Nov. 18 against the Utah Jazz.
Los Angeles has opened 7-3 behind Reaves' exploits, as well as 37.0 points, 10.0 rebounds and 9.5 assists from Luka Doncic, who has missed four early games himself largely because of a leg contusion.
