Los Angeles Lakers guard Gabe Vincent will join the team on their current road trip. Vincent is expected to be available to play on Sunday at the Brooklyn Nets.
Vincent hasn't played in a game since December 20. The veteran guard returned to the Lakers lineup on that day and played 14 minutes off the bench. That appearance followed a 23-game absence due to left knee soreness.
Following that abbreviated return, Vincent had surgery on his left knee. He's been rehabbing since and is now closing in on a return. Overall, Vincent has appeared in only five games for Los Angeles since inking a three-year, $33 million deal as a free agent last summer.
