Davis Bertans, forward for the Washington Wizards, will reportedly sit out the NBA’s Orlando restart. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski and Tim Bontemps reported on Monday that Bertans will sit out as “a preventative measure.” He would be the first healthy NBA player to voluntarily sit out the season’s restart.
Bertans, 27, just had his best season in the NBA. He was traded to the Wizards last summer and the change has more than agreed with him. He put up career highs in minutes per game (29.3), points per game (15.9), and made more 3-pointers and 2-pointers per game than any of his previous three seasons.
