Zach LaVine Cleared to Return, Removed from Injury Report for Thursday

Zach LaVine (back) has been removed from the injury report and is expected to return to the lineup for Thursday's game against the 76ers. He had missed the previous two contests due to lower-back soreness. His return will likely move Nique Clifford back to the bench. In his last 10 games, LaVine has averaged 17.8 points, 2.3 assists, and 2.2 rebounds in 30.7 minutes per contest for the Sacramento Kings.
