The cast was removed from Corey Maggette's injured left foot Tuesday, and the Los Angeles Clippers said an X-ray revealed significant healing in the ligament he injured almost two months ago.
"We will proceed with our intended therapy and rehabilitation program," team physician Tony Daly said after examining Maggette. "We are optimistic about Corey's status. He will be re-evaluated in two to three weeks, at which time we intend to determine a further course of action."
Maggette will undergo aquatic therapy and a rehabilitation program until his next evaluation. His playing shoe has been altered with a full-length carbon fiber shank to allow more rigidity, the team said, adding that Maggette is not expected to participate in any on-court activities until he is re-evaluated.

Thieves stole $500,000 in cash, jewelry and other items from the Bel-Air home of Los Angeles Clippers guard Cuttino Mobley, who was in Denver for a game against the Nuggets, authorities said Sunday.
The home was burglarized sometime between 6 p.m. Saturday and 5 a.m. Sunday, said Officer Mike Lopez, a Los Angeles police spokesman. He declined to release further details of the burglary and would not say whether detectives had identified any possible suspects.

Backup center Zeljko Rebraca, who sat out 24 games because of an irregular heartbeat, might be sidelined three more weeks after again experiencing chest pains, a Clipper spokesman said Thursday.
Physicians recommended that Rebraca, who did not accompany the team on a trip to play the Denver Nuggets tonight, sit out at least two weeks after tests Thursday at Centinela Hospital Medical Center in Inglewood did not reveal what caused his irregular heartbeat before Wednesday's 90-77 victory over the New Jersey Nets.
The four-year veteran, however, was cleared to resume full-contact practice, and Rebraca is expected to accompany the Clippers on a six-game, 11-day Eastern trip that begins Sunday.
"The doctors said he would have some episodes, periodically, while he gets adjusted to being back with us," Coach Mike Dunleavy said. "Hopefully, he'll be OK."
