Jacob Evans sent to hospital after taking elbow to face vs. Mavericks

As each day turns on the calendar, another injury pops up for the Golden State Warriors. Whether it’s at the top of the roster with D’Angelo Russell, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson, or the bottom of the rotation, hits keep coming to the Golden State Warriors.

The latest injury came in the second quarter against the Dallas Mavericks when Jacob Evans left the game after taking an elbow directly to the face. Evans was rattled after catching an inadvertent elbow from Mavericks forward, Dwight Powell.

Evans went down on the floor for a few minutes before being escorted to the locker room with team trainers. Evans was able to walk to the locker room slowly with help after taking the violent elbow to the face.

There’s been no official report on what injury Evans sustained from the hit. However, the Warriors did take him from Chase Center in San Francisco to the hospital. According to the Golden State Warriors’ public relations staff, Evans’s trip to the hospital is for further testing.

More updates will follow on the injury to the second-year guard.
