## Resource

Connecticut Sun’s Saniya Rivers went down hard with a sprained ankle during their game against the Minnesota Lynx, forcing her to be carted off in the second quarter—her shoe even flew off as she landed awkwardly. The eighth overall pick in the 2025 draft and a key starter, Rivers’ injury hits at the worst time, as the Sun were already missing top scorers Brittney Griner and Aneesah Morrow. Meanwhile, the Lynx were also shorthanded without rookie point guard Olivia Miles. Another injury-heavy night in the league.
