Young Closer to Wizards Debut, Davis Still Out

Trae Young is progressing toward his Washington Wizards debut while Anthony Davis remains sidelined as the team evaluates both injured All-Stars.

Young, who last played on Dec. 27 with an MCL sprain and thigh bruise, will "ramp up" basketball activities and be evaluated next week. The 27-year-old has been practicing in one-on-none and two-on-two settings.

Meanwhile, Davis, who last played on Jan. 8 with ligament damage in his hand, visited hand surgeon Steven Shin in Los Angeles before returning to Washington. The 32-year-old will be reevaluated in two weeks as both stars continue their recovery processes.
