During an appearance on The Sports Junkies on Tuesday, Wizards General Manager Will Dawkins shut down reports that Anthony Davis won\u2019t play this season.<\/p>\n
\u201cI would say highly likely,\u201d Dawkins said when asked about Davis and Trae Young playing this season. \u201cThat\u2019s the goal. We want to see our guys together so we can build camaraderie and build some continuity towards the end of the season.\u201d<\/p>\n
Davis suffered ligament damage in his left hand on Jan. 8. It was reported on Jan. 13 that Davis would forego surgery and be re-evaluated in six weeks.<\/p>\n
Following Wednesday\u2019s trade for Davis, Chris Haynes reported that the 32-year-old forward would miss the remainder of the season as he rehabs his hand injury. But Dawkins\u2019 recent comments, both on Sunday before the Wizards\u2019 game and on radio Tuesday, contradict that report.<\/p>\n
Dawkins said in January that the plan is to re-evaluate Young, who hasn\u2019t played with the Wizards while he rehabs an MCL sprain and a quad contusion, after the All-Star break. He said Davis, who was listed with a finger sprain, will continue rehabbing his hand injury in Dallas and will have an important doctor\u2019s appointment during the All-Star break.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"During an appearance on The Sports Junkies on Tuesday, Wizards General Manager Will Dawkins shut down reports that…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":588695,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3780],"tags":[7,6,682,468,15577,3892,683],"class_list":{"0":"post-594923","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-washington-wizards","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-nba","10":"tag-washington","11":"tag-washington-wizards","12":"tag-washington-wizards-news","13":"tag-washingtonwizards","14":"tag-wizards"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/116047428040307447","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/594923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=594923"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/594923\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/588695"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=594923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=594923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=594923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
