Nick Young to return for Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday

By , Reporter
Nick Young will return to the court on Sunday night for the Los Angeles Lakers following three weeks out with a knee injury.

The Los Angeles Lakers have received a boost with the news that Nick Young will return to action on Sunday night against the Brooklyn Nets.

Young has been missing for three weeks with a non-displaced fracture of the patella and bone bruising, but he has proved his fitness in training to offer a valuable option to Lakers coach Mike D'Antoni.

"I didn't think it was going to be this long, to tell you the truth," the 28-year-old told reporters on Saturday evening.

"I'm just happy to be back. I can't wait to get out there tomorrow."

Young has averaged 16.9 points per game this season.
