Lakers center Andrew Bynum was in Los Angeles earlier this week,
working for the Lakers team doctors and was cleared for everything,
according to his agent David Lee.

Bynum is now down in Atlanta working out with his personal trainer.
The Lakers, Lee said, have a standing invitation to drop in on Bynum
down in Atlanta and see his progress.

"He's absolutely fine, he's going to come in as a beast, " Lee said.
"He's got no atrophy anywhere.  The kid's in great shape.  Maybe it
comes with being 20 years of age."

As for the negotiations on Bynum's contract status, Lee said that the
discussions have been tabled until September.

"We aren't going to talk again until September until they have a chance
to see what they're getting, " Lee said.

"But I don't have any concerns about it."  Lee said that once
negotiations begin, it was "very important" that the extension be
completed by the time the season starts.  Lee will be seeking a max
(five year, $80 million) extension for his young center.  "I know what
we want, I know what the rest of the league thinks of Andrew. I just
hope the Lakers are on the same page, " Lee said.
