Mavericks deny MRI error in Austin Reaves case

The Dallas Mavericks have defended their medical protocols after Lakers coach JJ Redick claimed they scanned the wrong body part of Austin Reaves during an MRI.

Redick expressed frustration, stating the team explicitly requested a scan of a specific area, but the Mavericks performed the imaging on a different part of Reaves' body.

The Mavericks countered in a statement that their medical team followed standard protocols based on the information provided at the time and performed the scan correctly.
