EDGE Analysis

Nance continues to hold a questionable designation as Wednesday night's matchup with the Grizzlies nears, but his participation in shootaround is certainly a step in the right direction.

EDGE Analysis

Nance has missed 10 of the Lakers' 13 contests -- including the final six before the All-Star break -- while dealing with soreness in his right knee. After the Lakers' training staff prescribed some time off, the rookie appears to have responded well to the rest, as he's being declared "pain free" and has been working on strengthening his knee throughout the break. If he's indeed able to practice Wednesday, he could be cleared to play Friday against the Spurs.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Byron Scott hinted after Sunday's tilt with the Hornets that Nance could require an extended shutdown period after he experienced recurring soreness in his right knee, which prevented him from playing in that contest. In an effort to avoid worsening Nance's situation, the Lakers will give the rookie two weeks' worth of rest with the hope that it helps resolve the knee issue. The Lakers' first game after the All-Star break will be Feb. 19 against the Spurs, meaning that Nance is set to miss at least five games. Nance's absence will give Julius Randle some added security in his starting role at power forward.

Nance has not officially been ruled out beyond Sunday's game against the Hornets as of yet, but it seems likely he will miss further action to some degree.
