Davis was reevaluated by Dr. Steven Shin at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, where it was determined that while healing is underway, the volar plate tissue in his hand has not yet fully recovered. As a result, Davis will continue with conservative treatment while gradually increasing basketball activity based on tolerance. The team indicated that he will be reevaluated again at the end of the month, at which point a more definitive update is expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a separate update, <a href=\"https:\/\/dbltakesports.com\/index.php\/2026\/03\/07\/trae-young-helps-wizards-envision-playoffs-in-future\/\" title=\"\">Trae Young is dealing with multiple setbacks<\/a> following a recent reinjury. Young suffered a right quadriceps contusion during the third quarter of the Wizards\u2019 March 16 matchup against Golden State. Additional imaging conducted due to ongoing back discomfort revealed lower back irritation as well. Despite the dual concerns, the team confirmed that both injuries will be managed conservatively and do not require surgery at this time. His return timeline remains unclear, with further updates to be provided as his recovery progresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">And that\u2019s likely it for Trae Young this season after reinjuring his right quadriceps. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ForTheDistrict?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#ForTheDistrict<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NBA?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NBA<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/kpOctO0zKX\">pic.twitter.com\/kpOctO0zKX<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Double Take Sports (@dbltakesports) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dbltakesports\/status\/2035382669710667860?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 21, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p>Rookie forward Kyshawn George has also been added to the Wizards\u2019 injury report following an evaluation of his left elbow injury. George sustained the injury on March 2 against the Houston Rockets and was later diagnosed with a partial tear of the ulnar collateral ligament. He was evaluated by elbow specialist Dr. Keith Meister at TMI Sports Medicine &amp; Orthopedics in Arlington, Texas, who confirmed a Grade 2 distal UCL tear. The injury will be treated conservatively, and George is set to be reevaluated in one week, with an update to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These developments add another layer of complexity for the Wizards as they navigate player availability, with Davis, Young and George all managing injuries that will require careful monitoring in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Wizards are managing multiple injuries across the roster.
