Frank Vogel says it's unlikely but possible Davis could play either Sunday (PHT) or Tuesday during the Lakers' 2-game set with the Jazz.

The Los Angeles Lakers got some good news about one of their ailing superstars.

Before the Lakers hosted the Celtics Friday (PHT), coach Frank Vogel shared that Anthony Davis was cleared for full participation in on-court activities, opening the door for his return to action.

Davis sat out Friday's showdown between the Lakers and Celtics and is “unlikely” to play in the upcoming two-game set against the Utah Jazz on Sunday and Tuesday, according to Vogel.

Davis will be on a minutes restriction when he returns, likely around 15 minutes or so, as they ramp him up, reports Mike Trudell of Lakers.com.

The Lakers went 13-14 in the 27 games Davis missed entering Friday.
