Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin is spending time away from the ice after suffering a fractured left fibula during their game against Utah Hockey on Monday. The injury will see “The Great Eight” take at least 4-6 weeks to recover and return to the rink.
Meanwhile, Ovechkin and his wife, Nastasiya Ovechkina, were spotted at the NBA In Season Tournament group stage game between the Washington Wizards and the Boston Celtics at Capital One Arena on Friday. Alex Ovechkin enjoyed the game from the courtside, dressed in all red.
The official X (formerly Twitter) handle of the Washington Wizards welcomed the NHL great with a special post. They shared a picture of Ovechkin sitting courtside holding a decorative, red shimmery basketball and an accompanying clip, where Ovi waved to the camera and gave a thumbs up.
