WASHINGTON (AP) — Trae Young is getting closer to his Washington Wizards debut, but Anthony Davis still isn’t ready for the practice court, the team announced on Thursday.
The 27-year-old Young last played on Dec. 27. He will “ramp up” basketball activities to continue his recovery from an MCL sprain and a thigh bruise, according to a team statement, and be evaluated next week.
Earlier this month, Wizards GM Will Dawkins said Young had been practicing in one-on-none and two-on-two settings.
The 32-year-old Davis last played on Jan. 8.

“You just follow the process,” Washington coach Brian Keefe said. “That’s what we always do.”
