Bobcats' Wallace leaves game with ankle injury
Basketball Betting Lines
03/12/2010 -
Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Charlotte Bobcats forward Gerald Wallace left
Friday night's game against the Los Angeles Clippers with a sprained left
ankle.
With 1.5 seconds remaining in the second quarter, Wallace stole the ball from
Clippers guard Baron Davis and went the other way for a layup. Davis was
called for a flagrant foul type 1 as he pushed Wallace from behind on the
attempted layup. Wallace went flying to the floor and twisted his left ankle
in the process.
Wallace stayed on the floor for several minutes before getting up and trying
to walk off the injury. He was able to make 1-of-2 from the foul line before
heading to the locker room in obvious pain.
X-rays on Wallace's ankle at the half came back negative. However, he was not
able to return to action in the second half.
The 6-foot-7, 220-pounder was averaging 18.5 points and 10.5 rebounds coming
into Friday's game.
