Lakers' Larry Nance: Cleared to play Tuesday vs. Mavericks

Nance (wrist) will be available for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks, Mark Medina of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

Analysis:

After suffering a sprained right wrist during Sunday's loss to the Pelicans, Nance was able to practice Monday and take part in morning shootaround Tuesday without incident, which was good enough for the Lakers to sign off on his return. The second-year forward won't need to wear any extra protection on the wrist, so it's not expected that he'll face any limitations Tuesday.
