Wizards Issue Injury Updates on Trae Young and Anthony Davis

Medical timelines reflect a cautious approach given Washington's 14-39 record.

Overview

  • Trae Young was reevaluated after the All-Star break, has progressed positively, and will ramp up on-court work with another update due in one week.
  • Anthony Davis is managing ligament damage in his left hand, is progressing as expected, has not been cleared for basketball activities, and will be reexamined in two weeks.
  • Team officials noted Davis’ evaluation included a visit with hand specialist Dr. Steven Shin in Los Angeles.
  • Neither Young nor Davis has played for Washington since being acquired in separate trades, including Davis’ Feb. 4 move from Dallas and Young’s earlier deal from Atlanta.
  • Reporting from ESPN indicates expectations that both may see limited action the rest of the season as Washington prioritizes draft positioning.
