Golden State Warriors forward Kevon Looney will be out at least the next two weeks as he continues to recover from a sprained left ankle, the team announced Wednesday.
The 24-year-old big man suffered an ankle sprain during Tuesday’s 111-107 defeat to the Boston Celtics and had an MRI late Tuesday night that confirmed the sprain. He will be reevaluated in two weeks as he continues rehab.

“This was a fluke,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said after the game. “He caught his foot on the floor and rolled the ankle. Just the way it goes. I feel bad for him because he’s worked so hard to get back to this space and he’s really been playing well for us, so it’s a big blow.”
Looney is averaging 3.7 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 14.7 minutes over his first 21 games this season.
