With a still full infirmary, the Lakers are in difficulty in the West, in particular to validate this place for the play-in. But the latest news is finally positive.

As the Lakers face the Nets this Sunday evening, LeBron James and his partners should count on a strong reinforcement: Gabe Vincent.

In difficulty since his arrival in the City of Angels, the leader mainly spent his last months in the infirmary after an operation.

Its goal ? Get back in shape for the playoffs and help your teammates.

Finally a return to the Lakers?

Except that with the absences of Jarred Vanderbilt and Christian Wood, the Angelinos have not always had luck this season in terms of injuries.

The return of Vincent is appreciated, he who could be a major asset behind D’Angelo Russell and company.

Note, however, that his return this Sunday is not certain, but it is imminent.

Gabe Vincent has been upgraded to QUESTIONABLE for tomorrow’s game against the Brooklyn Nets

Gabe Vincent was listed as doubtful tomorrow against the Nets.

Vincent’s return should do the Angelinos good, although his arrival is still questioned by some supporters.

Especially with Darvin Ham at the helm. But as the playoffs approach, it is clear that the Lakers must empty their infirmary.

Holy shit finally

Oh shit finally

So happy to see him back!

So glad he’s back!

At a fairly tense end to the season for this play-in race, this return of Gabe Vincent is important for the Lakers.

The leader will in any case have to recover very quickly given the stakes.
