Hope he misses 4 games.
Nash leaves Suns game with ankle injury
March 6, 2006
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Phoenix point guard Steve Nash, the reigning NBA MVP, left the Suns' game against New Orleans on Monday night with a sprained right ankle.
His return was questionable.

Nash, who leads the NBA with 10.9 assists per game, went into the tunnel toward the Phoenix locker room with 2:54 left in the third quarter. He had not returned by the start of the fourth.
He had 12 points and seven assists before leaving.
Nash has played all 58 of the Suns' games this season. He missed seven games last season with injuries to his left thigh and left hamstring and back spasms.
Hope he misses 4 games.
Nash being injury prone was a big reason he wasn't resigned. I'm surprised he didn't get injured before this.
so he won't be available vs Spurs?
was it serious?
So he waits to beat Dallas before getting injured. Great.
I said before he got hurt the last years of his contract he will get hurt
they need to play him less minutes and save him for the latter years in his contract
Hope he gets better. This season won't be as much fun without the intense race to the playoffs, with Nash leading the way for the Suns. This season has been one of the best in recent memories precisely because the race is so wide open.
come nash get healthy so we can beat you all guys without any excuse
i don't want excuses. I want Nash on that team when the Spurs play them.
Nash /Suns kicked-butt Dallas yesteday.
i don't want to see any *sagain.
So you didn't re-sign one of the best PG in the league because you were afraid he would sprain his ankle at some point?
BRILLIANT!!
No that fatigue and his body breaking was it. This injury might give him some rest on his bad back.
Yeah, he really broke down last year.
Since 2001, Nash has missed a grand total of 11 games, nice to see the Urban Legend lives.
Nowitzki, now there is someone who lives on the IR list, what with all the games he has missed in the past five years.
wtf gives, spurs will beat u on any given day. This fake injury is just playin mind games with us, the same way pop schooled the suns management in that last game against them last season, with gino n duncan not playin.
Okay, I'm now convinced that you aren't actually a Mavericks fan. Nash was anything but injury prone. Besides, he sprained his ankle. If that's your definition of "injury prone" you should make sure to only re-sign players who don't have feet.
Such a good professional who plays for friends
he preferred Nash got injured before the game vs DallasSuch a good professional who plays for friends
so Dallas stays on top of the Southwest Div. & WC overall
oh that he better play..
hey i got an idea..
Can someone put this face
on someone rolling their ankle?
that'd be great
If it makes you feel any better, if Nash sits out along with Amare and Thomas, I won't whine if you decide to pull a Sarvar and start cluckin'!
He's listed as day to day. Nash doesn't think it's too bad.
He walked to the locker room. It can't be that bad.
the ankle is still loose, nash will have more trouble walking tomorrow
i dont really give a about the suns, if they are at full strength or missin any players, i take the win anyway we can. a win is a win.
Yeah, he has been a huge disappointment for Phoenix. The Mavs are better without the scrub.
Yep. We're gonna win anyway because of SPAM
The ankle rollover didn't look very bad. Just a little tweak. He'll definitely be sore today but a little ice and elevation will be all that's needed.
Frankly, I'm hoping Nash doesn't play versus the Spurs. Let him get a few games rest since the Suns basically have the 2nd seed locked with the Clips slipping away and the Suns building a 8.5 game lead.
Plus the Spurs will be forced to see the Suns w/o Nash, Amare, KT, Jones, and BG. Yet the Suns will get a look at the full roster of the Spurs.
