Washington guard Nick Young briefly left in the third quarter of the Wizards' game against the Miami Heat on Friday night with a sprained left ankle.

He went into the Washington locker room for treatment and returned to the game in the fourth quarter.

Young, with his sneaker off, walked slowly off the floor after remaining down on the court for about two minutes. He missed a layup with 7:47 left in the quarter and was clearly in pain after landing, grabbing his shin.

Young had 27 points on 9-for-13 shooting in 24 minutes before going to the locker room.
