Great ghost of Gilberts guns! If it wasn’t for bad luck, the Washington Wizards would have no luck at all. Enter the season ending knee injury of newly acquired Josh Howard.
Wizards President Ernie Grunfeld announced today that guard/forward Josh Howard has a torn ACL in his left knee and will miss the remainder of the 2010-11 season. Howard suffered the injury in last night’s game vs. Chicago at the 4:23 mark of the first quarter. In four games (three starts) for Washington this season, Howard averaged 14.5 points and 3.3 rebounds per game.No timetable has been announced for Howard’s recovery.
I never thought I’d say this, but the Washington Wizards at this point look like they need College phenom John Wall way more than the (5 and awful) New Jersey Nets. That’s just how bad things look right now for the Wiz.
