MRI on Gerald Wallace's ankle comes back negative
Basketball Betting Lines
03/13/2010 - Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - An MRI on Charlotte Bobcats forward Gerald Wallace's left ankle came back negative on Saturday.
The results showed Wallace does not have any fractures or ligament damage, but rather a left ankle and mid-foot sprain.
With 1.5 seconds remaining in the second quarter of Friday's win over the Clippers, Wallace stole the ball from 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 attempt. 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 for the rest of the game.
The 6-foot-7, 220-pounder, who made his first All-Star team this season, is averaging 18.5 points and 10.4 rebounds in 62 games.
