The Story in Brief
Brittney Griner is listed as questionable for Thursday's WNBA game between the Connecticut Sun and the Atlanta Dream due to a left knee injury. The 35-year-old centre, who leads the Sun with 13.6 points per game, could miss her first game since returning from a four-game absence. The Sun snapped a five-game losing streak with a win over Phoenix on Friday. Atlanta, with a 20-12 record, has ruled out Te-Hina Paopao due to a leg injury. The Sun aim to build on their 8-23 record against the Dream at home.
The Indian Opinion
Social media often frames every WNBA player injury as a sign of the league's physical toll, but Griner's knee issue is just a routine setback for a 35-year-old centre. The fear that she is injury-prone is overstated; she has played 17 games this season. Instead of speculating on her durability, note this: if Griner misses the game, Connecticut's scoring depth will be tested. The real test is whether the Sun can win back-to-back without relying solely on her 13.6 points per game.
