The Sky's Not So Sunny:
The Chicago Sky are hurting. Candace Parker, the team's veteran superstar, is out with a left knee injury that will keep her out for a few games. Parker's injury is a huge blow to the Sky, who are fighting for a playoff spot. To add insult to injury, Courtney Vandersloot, their point guard, is also out with a knee injury. The Sky are hoping for a quick return for both players.
Aces Up? Not So Fast:
The Las Vegas Aces are also dealing with their own injury issues. Kelsey Plum, the league's leading scorer, is out with a right foot injury. The Aces are hoping for a speedy recovery from Plum, but they're not sure how long she'll be out.
More Bad News:
The Phoenix Mercury also lost a key player this week, Brittney Griner, who is out with a thumb injury. Griner is a dominant force in the paint, and her absence will be felt by the Mercury.

It's a tough time for the WNBA, but we know these players will come back stronger than ever. Stay tuned for more updates, and let's all send some good vibes to the injured players.
