The Los Angeles Lakers are set to welcome Anthony Davis back from injury against the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday.
Davis has been upgraded to probable for the game at Barclays Center, having been out for almost six weeks with an MCL sprain.
The return of the eight-time NBA All-Star boosts a Lakers team toiling at 23-24 in eighth place in the West.
Davis has played just 27 games this season and only 15 alongside LeBron James.
Despite LA’s poor stretch, which began with Davis in the team, going 13-14 with him in the lineup, James has excelled.
In 20 games without Davis this year, James has averaged 32.7 points, taking on added responsibility with third man Russell Westbrook struggling.
The Lakers will hope both Davis and the rest of the team can now rediscover their best form to recover a title push this season.
