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”

Notes: Due to Etan Thomas being injured Brendan Haywood has taken over starting however now Brendan Haywood has gotten injured and Jarvis Hayes is starting at the four and Antawn Jamison was moved up to the 5.  There is no news on who will start once both Haywood and Thomas are healthy.

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)

After last  nights big 121-109 victory at home against Charlotte the Wizards progress to 6-9.  The Wizards will now play the Bulls at Chicago tonight in the hopes of getting their first road win.  If the Wizards want to win this game Gilbert needs to be ready to play and the Wiz need to focus on rebounding.  Hopefully we can snag this win in one of our rivals hometown and continue to cure the wounds from the disgusting road trip last week.

After a slow start going 4-9 (Jamison and Arenas having sub-par performances) the Wizards will now take on divison rivals the Hawks on tuesday 28th. The Hawks have currently been bitten by the injury bug and this is our chance to start a comeback run.  Hopefully are offense will start flowing and we’ll be able to take down one of the more mediocre teams in the league.
