The Washington Wizards were without starting power forward Nene Hilario for the second half of their Saturday night contest against the Milwaukee Bucks.

The team reported that Nene left after aggravating his right plantar fascia.

Nene is an integral two-way piece for the Wizards. His presence in the paint is a boon for the Wizards on a nightly basis. 

The 32-year-old is averaging 11.5 points and 5.2 rebounds on the season.
