Doomed, I say doomed.

Breaks my heart. Best wishes Azzi. Bunches of hugs.

Well, this is very bad news. I just wish Azzi the best and hope that she has a complete recovery.

 

[MSSportsGuy]

Darn, darn, darn, darn. Unreal. So sorry for Azzi. Hope she bounces back better than ever next season.

 

[CB360]

Heartbroken for the young lady.......

JFC.

This is horrible news. I hope she has a speedy recovery.

 

[Urshurak]

Didn’t even happen in a game. I said it when she was still in high school. Those knees will be too fragile. Here we are. Feel awful for her. She’s got elite talent but doesn’t mean much when you can’t stay on the court. Maybe this surgery she’s having will fix it. For her sake I hope so.

Wow. The damage her knees have suffered at such a young age. Amazing how few games we have seen her with Paige….the serious injury bug continues

 

[huskeynut]

It is the same knee that she had the ACL surgery in high school. Not good at all.

 

[Topsail]

Poor AZzi, here s to a complete recovery next year………..team is Cursed by injuries again this year, never ends.

 

[darrell]

I hate this so much. It’s truly unfortunate that kids who love the game as much as they do are hit with so many setbacks.

If there is one silver lining, like Paige & Ice, at least Azzi & Jana will have each other this season. Hoping they’ll both be back better and healthier than ever next season.

 

[MilfordHusky]

I'm not surprised, but this is horrible news for my local girl. Best wishes on the rehab and much love to Azzi!

I had refrained from posting my initial thoughts about Azzi’s injury when it happened prior to a medical diagnosis of the injury. But it certainly crossed my mind that “non-contact” knee injuries are usually much worse than those a player gets from running into someone or hitting the floor hard.

Hoping that Azzi finds her way back to good health, and she’s able to play the game she loves at the very highest level once again.

Horrible news! This young lady can't get a break and we don't get to see her and Paige play together. ALl the best to Azzi on her road to recovery!

Paige injured her knee early in her sophomore season, misses time. Makes a return in March. Proceeds to tear her ACL prior to her junior season.

Azzi injured her knee early in her sophomore season, misses time. Makes a return in March. Proceeds to tear her ACL at the start of her junior season.

The similarity is eerie. Best wishes to Azzi in recovery. I hope she makes a complete recovery and is able to be better than ever next season.

 

[JellyBean]

Man. My heart goes out to Azzi. She put in a lot of work over the summer to get ready for the season. Just sending hugs and positive vibes right now. Best wishes, Azzi.

 

[JeannoCT]

What a gut punch. So sad for Azzi and her family.

 

[REB1094]

Heartbreaking…best of luck to Azzi in her recovery

 

[JSB60]

Azzi may be like Shea Ralph. All the talent and heart in the world but knees that can’t sustain it.

 

[BRS24]

I did not stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night, however, beginning to wonder if her two injuries last season did more damage than originally thought, and this new one was just the final straw. Unless you scope the knee and look around with a camera, some damage might not be as visible with an MRI or physical exam? Dammit.

 

[Shenandoah]

So sorry to hear this. That is why I think that she and Paige should use their covid year and stay at UConn beyond their 4 years. With their history of injuries, they would be wise to get their Masters degrees for free.
Besides that, they probably can't afford the pay cut they would get playing in the W. Relax, folks, that was a joke...
