Seattle Storm guard Flau'jae Johnson has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Chicago Sky due to an ankle injury, Hindustan Times reports. It is the first game she will miss this season after appearing in all 34 previous contests. The 22-year-old was helped off the court during the third quarter of Saturday's loss to the Portland Fire. Johnson averages 13.7 points and 4.9 rebounds per game. The Storm also will be without Katie Lou Samuelson (knee). Seattle has lost 11 straight games and sits at 6-28.
Indian sports fans may see every WNBA injury as a major story, but this is a routine absence in a long season. The Storm are already at the bottom of the standings, so one player's absence hardly changes their fortunes. Let's watch how quickly Johnson returns, if she misses more than a week, then the ankle might be serious.
