Wizards forward Isaiah Livers will miss the remainder of the 2023/24 season due to joint capsule inflammation in his right hip, the team’s PR department tweets.
Livers, who was traded along with Marvin Bagley III and two second-round picks for Danilo Gallinari and Mike Muscala in mid-January, has been beset by injuries during his young career.
The third-year forward has yet to make his Washington debut due to a combination of being out of the rotation and the hip issue. Livers appeared in 23 games (six starts) for Detroit this season, averaging 5.0 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 20.4 minutes. He missed nearly a month of action after suffering an ankle sprain during a pre-training camp workout.
Livers saw action in 52 games last season, his second in the league after being drafted in the second round by the Pistons in 2021. He missed 20 games as a result of a right shoulder sprain.
Livers had a foot injury stemming from his college career at Michigan when he was drafted. That limited him to 19 games in his rookie year. Overall, he’s seen action in 94 career games.
He’ll be a restricted free agent this offseason if the Wizards extend him a qualifying offer worth a projected $2.37MM.
well there goes washington’s chance at a finals run
So where are all the Poole lovers now ……..
It’s amazing how fans buy into non-players. One of worst contracts in the History of the game. .
What does this have to do with Jordan Poole?
Washington really bailed out GS. Poole = garbo
On top of this not having anything to do with Poole, it seemed to me like the large majority of people were against his contract when he signed it. Knickerbocker guy making up narratives again lol.
They both went to Michigan?
Livers has been terrrrrible this season. Probably should get waived.
