Ish Smith is expected to miss approximately six-eight weeks due to a quad injury. Let’s take a look at how his absence impacts the Washington Wizards moving forward.
Before securing their third win in a row, the Washington Wizards released some unfortunate news regarding their veteran backup point guard. Ish Smith, who suffered a quad injury in the loss to the New York Knicks on February 12, is expected to miss an extended period of time. Before things tipped off vs. the Denver Nuggets, the Washington Wizards announced that Ish will be out for almost two months after being diagnosed with a right proximal quadriceps injury.
