Monta Ellis injury update: Just a neck sprain
Oct 7th, 2007 by Inside Hoops
Golden State Warriors guard Monta Ellis, who was injured during the team’s evening practice session at BYU-Hawaii on Friday when he hit his head on the hip of rookie forward Brandan Wright during a full court scrimmage, was released from the hospital late Friday night (Hawaii time, just before midnight). Ellis left Castle Hospital in Kailua, Hawaii on his own accord with what was diagnosed as simply a neck sprain. The 6′3″ guard underwent a battery of tests - including an MRI and CT Scan - which all proved normal. His status is listed as day-to-day and his availability for the team’s preseason games against the Los Angeles Lakers in Honolulu on Tuesday and Thursday will be determined early next week.
