Nelson Chenault-USA TODAY Sports

After missing the last five weeks with a left foot injury, Vince Carter returned to the Memphis Grizzlies' lineup in Friday's victory over the Los Angeles Lakers.

Carter, who had been listed as questionable for Friday's game, checked into the contest late in the first quarter, marking his first game action since Jan. 29.

Carter had been sidelined after injuring a tendon in his left foot.

Carter finished scoreless in six minutes on Friday. The 38-year-old has averaged six points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.3 assists in his first season with the Grizzlies.
