Los Angeles Lakers starting shooting guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope is scheduled for an MRI on his bruised left quad, ESPN reported Friday.

Caldwell-Pope exited in the third quarter of the Lakers’ 109-95 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Thursday in Game 3 of their Western Conference first-round series. Caldwell-Pope was injured after running into Suns guard Devin Booker.

Seventh-seeded Los Angeles holds a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series. Game 4 is on Sunday afternoon.

“I’m doing well. Just sore, but I’m doing well,” Caldwell-Pope said after Thursday’s game. “I’ve got two days for rest and recovery, and I hope I’m ready to go Sunday.”

Caldwell-Pope, 28, is averaging 4.0 points in the three playoff games. He averaged 9.7 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 67 games (all starts) this season.
