Not really, he has some sustain but the main reason why not is beacause there is no rly good LS items for him. Zekes isnt cost efficient for personal use. BT is too big, to utilize so much AD you need a lot of crit, and you aint gonna build squishy aint ya? Lantern is a jungle item, so you waste some money on creep damage passive, but its rather cost efficient and small enough to be "item for laning, sell later if dame drags". BotRK is an interesting option but kinda has same issues as BT, you get a lot of AD but its smaller so you might be able to fit it into build, just keep in mind that you need to have some crit after getting 130-140 AD. So, if you really want lifesteal in lane go for lantern, if you want to have lifesteal out of lane go for BotRK, if you are ahead and want to rape faces you can build BT, IE, PD(NOT in that order tho, mix components to keep balanced stats) and to not be squishy get either warmogs-GA or bulwark-randuins.
