Nance (wrist) is probable for Thursday's matchup against the Suns, Mark Medina of the L.A. Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 6-9 forward played in the Lakers' previous game with a sprained wrist, so coach Luke Walton expects that Nance will be available for Thursday's game as well. If for some reason he isn't able to play, Julius Randle and Thomas Robinson could see extra run.

Nance (wrist) logged 21 minutes in a 122-111 loss to the Mavericks on Tuesday, producing eight points (4-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four rebounds, one steal and one block.

EDGE Analysis

Nance was cleared to suit up Tuesday following after exiting early in the Lakers' last game Sunday against the Pelicans with a sprained wrist and ended up taking on a typical workload. Coach Luke Walton has phased out former starting small forward Luol Deng out of the rotation since the All-Star break, but Deng's playing time has mostly fallen to Brandon Ingram, as Nance hasn't seen much of an appreciable bump in minutes.

Nance (wrist) took part in Monday's practice, but is considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks, Mark Medina of L.A. Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nance suffered a sprained wrist during Sunday's game against the Pelicans, but his availability for Monday's practice bodes well for his status moving forward. He's being listed as questionable heading into Tuesday's tilt with the Mavericks, but we should see another update following the team's morning shootaround.

Nance suffered a sprained right wrist in Sunday's game against the Pelicans.

EDGE Analysis

X-rays on the wrist came back negative, which is good news regarding Nance's long-term availability. He will be reevaluated on Monday, but if the forward is forced to miss any time, Thomas Robinson would be in line to see additional action in the Lakers' frontcourt. Stay updated on Nance's status in advance of Tuesday's game against the Mavericks.

Nance (thumb) is available to play in Wednesday's game against the Suns, Mark Medina of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nance was probable heading into the evening, so his availability Wednesday is unsurprising. He has indicated that his thumb is feeling fine. Look for him to take on his usual workload in the contest.

Nance is dealing with a sprained right thumb, but is probable for Wednesday's game against the Suns, Mark Medina of Los Angeles Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear exactly when Nance suffered the sprain, but it's nothing serious and he's fully expected to play through the injury. Nance has seen a jump in playing time of late and over his last five games has averaged 10.6 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 2.0 steals across 26.8 minutes, so despite being in a reserve role, he's still got some value in deeper leagues.

Nance posted 18 points (7-13 FG, 4-6 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists and three steals in 32 minutes Friday during a 113-107 loss to the Celtics.

EDGE Analysis

Nance had his best all-around game since returning from a knee injury on January 22nd. Friday also marks his first double double since November 30th against the Bulls. He'll see if he can build on his success Monday versus the Knicks.

Nance scored four points (2-2 FG) while adding a rebound and a block in 10 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 122-73 loss to the Mavericks.

EDGE Analysis

He's been out of action since December 20 due to a knee injury, and the Lakers aren't going to give Nance a full workload until he gets his legs back. The second-year forward had shown some modest growth in his production prior to getting hurt, but he's unlikely to supplant Julius Randle or Luol Deng from the starting lineup even once he's 100 percent.

Nance (knee) has been cleared for a full practice Saturday and will receive limited minutes Sunday against the Mavericks, Mark Medina of the L.A. Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nance is averaging 22.4 minutes per game on the season, so he'll see less than that considering his minutes are restricted. But, it's a good sign for the Lakers, who have been without his 7.0 points and 5.5 rebounds per game over the past 15 contests. With his return, most of the Lakers forwards should see a slight drop in minutes.
