The long wait for Andrew Bynum’s return from his Jan. 31st tear of the MCL in his right knee could be over when L.A. takes the floor against the Denver Nuggets on Thursday evening at STAPLES.
“I’m ready to go,” said Bynum after completing a 5-on-5 session at Wednesday’s practice. “Just waiting on my release … I think tomorrow is possible.”

I don’t know how much more he can get out of the activity level that he’s doing right now. He’s got to get playing here pretty soon.”
