The Los Angeles Lakers have gone quiet after their successful stint at the In-season Tournament. The Lakers had their fair share of injury effects in the last few seasons, and it didn’t fail to plague this season as well. However, as a surprise, the LA team’s injury report ahead of the game came in with a lot of good news.

Anthony Davis missed out on the Lakers’ previous game against the San Antonio Spurs due to a hip injury. And the game’s result spoke volumes about AD’s importance in the roster. At the same, the team missed him for the majority of games in last season and barely set its footing on the postseason. Nevertheless, the LA side has very little to worry about, as the roster is almost back to full strength.

Another sweet update for the Lakers

However, one particular has been on the injury report since the start of the season. It is Gabe Vincent. The ex-Miami Heat player suffered a knee injury, and he is still recovering it. Nevertheless, the Lakers Nation has more promising news on Vincent’s availability, reported McMenamin on his X handle.

Ahead of the Knicks game, head coach Darvin Ham revealed that Vincent has a few more boxes to tick before stepping onto the court again.

The star suffered a knee injury after playing only 4 games in the season and has been out since then. Notably, he played major role in the Heat’s Finals run last season and the Lakers’ roped him in for a similar impact. However, by the looks of the report, Vincent could return to the court in a few days.
