The Washington Wizards shut down injured forward Kyshawn George for the rest of the season on Thursday.
George tore the ulnar collateral ligament in his left elbow on March 2 and was re-evaluated on Wednesday.
Specialist Dr. Keith Meister of Arlington, Texas, determined that George requires additional healing.
Per the Wizards: 'George will be re-evaluated in two weeks and is expected to make a full recovery ahead of the 2026-27 season.'
