Hello old friend

[Lebowski]

Z injured with sprained ankle in the 1st tonight. No updates as of yet.

After wincing in pain, Z walked off under his own power, and looked OK. The Cavs were quick to announce he was done for the game, which came as no surprise with the team 6.5 up on #5 seed Washington with just 9 games left.

Looked bad though. High ankle sprain. Was suprised to see him walk off.

Say your prayers ...

sit him untill the playoffs start

I think Z would be less affected than anyone else on the team by potentially missing the last 8 games before the playoffs.

Im sure the Cavs will take no chances with the ankle. Ideally, you'd like to see him back for at least a game or two before the playoffs start, but not if theres even a 1% chance he could worsen the ankle by playing.

I cannot wait for the playoffs.
