The Clippers may get center Chris Kaman and point guard Baron Davis back next week.

Kaman is dealing with a sprained left ankle and admitted that he pushed things after suffering the injury in practice.

"The true story is I kind of jumped the gun," Kaman said. "I was feeling good and I was walking around feeling good. So I thought I was going to be good to play sooner than later. I tried to go out there two days ago to do some stuff.

"I can't jump off it yet like I want to without a lot of pain. I can do single-leg toe raises, can't do many single-leg jumps. I'm working on getting more strength now."

Meanwhile, Los Angeles coach Vinny Del Negro says that Davis could return soon as well.

"We want to get a couple more practices out of him and see exactly where he is before we put him out there," Del Negro said of Davis, who is dealing with a swollen left knee.
