David West might not play for the Hornets when they take on the Pistons on Sunday afternoon, according to the Times-Picayune.

West suffered a sprained right ankle in the team's win against the Lakers on Friday night, with Pau Gasol of Los Angeles suffering the same fate.

He had missed three games with a sprained left ankle recently.

"Being that it's the other ankle, I really don't know what to think. (Team trainer) Terry Kofler really thought it would be a game-time decision," Byron Scott said. "I'm going to talk to David to see how he feels, and we'll go from there. It's just one of those things, and it has been a rough couple of weeks for him."
