Terrible news for Josh Howard, the former Mavericks standout traded to Washington in the Butler/Haywood deal: J-Ho left Monday’s Wizards-Bulls game late in the first quarter after injuring his left knee. … and he’s not coming back this season.
With 4:24 remaining in the initial period of an eventual Wizards win, Howard caught a downcourt pass but his left knee appeared to buckle as he received the ball. Josh – who has in recent years had injury issues with his ankle and wrist – was helped to the locker room. The Wiz initially reported the injury as a sprained knee.
But moments ago, Washington coach Flip Saunders reported that Josh sustained a torn ACL and will be out for the year.
