WNBA Injury Report: Sunday, October 12th - A Lot of "Game Time Decisions"

Hey, basketball fans! It's time for the Sunday WNBA Injury Report. It's been a wild week with tons of playoff action, and it seems like every team is dealing with some sort of nagging injury. Let's dive into the latest news and see who's in, who's out, and who's a big question mark for this week's games.

The Big Question Marks:

• Breanna Stewart (New York Liberty): Stewart, the reigning MVP, has been battling a lingering ankle injury. She played through it in the last game, but it's definitely something to keep an eye on. Will she be at 100%? It's anyone's guess right now, but the Liberty need her to be firing on all cylinders.
• A'ja Wilson (Las Vegas Aces): Wilson, the 2020 MVP, missed the last game with a knee injury. She's still not practicing fully, but she's "progressing" according to the Aces. With the Aces fighting for a playoff spot, they'll need their star center back on the court ASAP.
• Kelsey Plum (Las Vegas Aces): Plum, the Aces' other star guard, is still battling a wrist injury. She's been playing through it, but it's clearly affecting her game. The Aces need her to be a reliable scorer, especially with Wilson potentially out.

The "We'll See How They Feel" Crew:

• Sabrina Ionescu (New York Liberty): Ionescu is dealing with a foot injury, but she's listed as "probable." That's a good sign for the Liberty, but you know Ionescu is a warrior, so even if she's not 100%, she'll be out there giving it her all.
• Jewell Loyd (Seattle Storm): Loyd, the Storm's dynamic guard, is nursing a knee injury. She's listed as "questionable," but she's been practicing, so it seems like she'll be good to go. The Storm need her to be healthy if they want to make a deep playoff run.

The Good News:

• Brittney Griner (Phoenix Mercury): Griner is back and healthy! The Mercury have missed her presence, so her return is a huge boost for them. Hopefully, she can help them make a push for the playoffs.
• Candace Parker (Chicago Sky): Parker is also back and healthy! The Sky have been struggling without her, so her return is a big sigh of relief for Chicago. She's a veteran leader and one of the best players in the league.

What to Look Out For:

With the playoffs in full swing, every game matters. Keep an eye out for these injuries and see how they impact the teams and their chances of winning the championship. It's going to be a wild finish to the season!
