An ankle injury, that one source termed "lightly sprained" coulc keep New Orleans Hornets rookie Anthony Davis out for one to two weeks, jeopardizing his chance at making the U.S. Olympic basketball team.

Davis injured the ankle in a Saturday workout at the Alario Center, and there were reports on Monday that the injury was severe.

Anthony Davis Sr., Davis's father, said by phone on Monday that he didn't know any details about the injury.

"I have no idea," the elder Davis said. "I don't know anything about his ankle. I haven't heard anything."

Sports Illustrated's Sam Amick, quoting USA Basketball chairman Jerry Colangelo, said Colangelo was still gathering information regarding the injuury

New Orleans Hornets forward Anthony Davis suffered a light sprain to his ankle and will likely be out one to two weeks. The injury most likely takes him out of Team USA running, league sources told ESPN The Magazine's Ric Bucher.
