Swoopes Leaves Practice Early

The Storm finished practice today without guard Sheryl Swoopes, who left early after suffering a knee injury.

“Don’t know yet,” said Brian Agler after practice, asked about Swoopes’ status. “Tweaked her knee.

“I didn’t really see what happened. It was away from the ball. I think she was planting and cutting. I asked (Athletic Trainer) Tom (Spencer) if it was a contact-type thing, and it wasn’t a contact type of injury. She didn’t run into anybody or hit anybody. So we’re just sort of waiting to hear back.”

    If this is anything at all serious, which I definetly hope it isn’t, Kristen’s signing just got more valuable. She can play the two or three if needed as well as her natural position PG.

    I may be best for Swoopes to be the inactive player this weekend and give her rest. Put O’Neill in the rotation as backup to Sue at PG and Tanisha/Katie at SG.
