Unique "Did Not Play" note

Postby Andrew on Fri Apr 06, 2007 4:16 pm

Just when you think you've heard all the jabs at Robert Horry ribbing him about his age, along comes the Suns/Spurs boxscore for April 5th, 2007.

I can't wait to see any DNP entries for Kevin Willis.

It also happened in the Spurs and Warriors game.

Found this at another forum.

Kevin Willis was spared in the boxscores for today's Mavs/Nuggets game. Looks like they're only interested in picking on Horry. ;)

Maybe Popovich and Duncan are part of the prank too. :lol:

I missed that as well. He played nine minutes against the Warriors today as well, though Horry was spared any further shots at his age.

They've yet to change it on either boxscore. I guess it's their story and they're sticking to it.

I don't know if it's photoshopped or not but I found one for Jason Richardson during a game last January.
Probably a typo:

It's legit. Probably a mistake but given the Robert Horry situaion, I guess you never know.

there's probably a limited number of characters you can enter when they type in the DNP reason and they ran out of room for Richardson.

The name "Jason Richardson" takes up sixteen characters including the space, the same number as "Coach's Decision" and fewer than some of the listed injuries, such as "Right Shoulder Cont(usion)". Assuming the presence of a Yahoo! Sports employee looking to inject some humour into the boxscores is nothing but a paranoid fantasy, I'd say the Richardson mistake is just an oversight.

I'd say it's an abbreviation for "Not With Team", in this case owing to his suspension.

LaMarcus Alridge is the latest player to receive special attention in the boxscore for today's Sonics/Blazers game. Something definitely amiss with Yahoo! Sports as of late.
