January 1st, 2007 Brendan Haywood Will Play Against the Bucks on Wednesday

Washington Post -
“Washington Wizards center Brendan Haywood, who missed Saturday night’s 119-102 loss at Milwaukee with a right ankle sprain, said he expects to play Wednesday night against the Bucks at Verizon Center.

Haywood rolled the ankle during the third quarter of Friday’s home win over Orlando. He returned to the game after having the ankle re-taped, but it swelled after the game and was still a problem before tip-off Saturday.

“It’s a sprain, but not a really bad sprain like the one Etan has,” Haywood said, referring to center Etan Thomas, who has been out since Dec. 9 with a severely sprained left ankle. “I’ll get some ice and some rest and it should be okay” by Wednesday night”

January 1st, 2007 Washington Wizards @ Milwaukee Bucks

Your (17-13) Wizards will take on the (16-15) Bucks on Wednesday.  This is the second of a two game series which started with a Wizards loss last Saturday.  Wizards will now have a chance to win the season series and further progress in taking the South East division title over the Orlando Magic.  The Hibachi Chef was kept to only 19 points on saturday and i’m hoping for some home cooking on wednesday from him and I believe the Wizards will take this win even though they’re playing without four of their big men due to the injury bug sweeping the NBA. (Etan Thomas, Brendan Haywood, Darius Songaila, and Micheal Ruffin)
