DENVER -- Lakers forward Jarred Vanderbilt, sidelined since Feb. 1 with a right midfoot sprain, is targeting a return as soon as Game 3 of Los Angeles' first-round series against the Denver Nuggets, a source familiar with the situation told ESPN.

Vanderbilt has been ramping up his on-court workouts in the past two weeks, the source told ESPN, and participated in one of his most intense workouts yet Monday morning at Ball Arena.

Vanderbilt's availability will be determined based on how his body responds in the coming days leading up to Thursday's Game 3 in Los Angeles.
