She can't catch a break! Tough luck and probably misses the WNBA season - she could come back for the second half if recovery is fast but would likely be out of 'game shape' if she tried.

Oh no! I love watching her play.

Did this injury happen while playing overseas?

 

[RSHERMVIKES]

Terrible, terrible news! She plays with such a fire and positive enthusiasm that makes you enjoy the game more!
Best wishes for a successful & quick recovery!

This is sad news on a few levels. Such a fine young lady and fine young player sidelined by a tough injury. Achilles injuries however are very difficult injuries to recover from, and frequently players are never the same afterward. I hate to see an player injured, and I wish her nothing but the best, but this one seems especially hard luck.

An absolute gut punch for us Sun fans. Another year that could have been?

Hope Jillian Alleyne is ready to bang in the big leagues.

Dammit she just can't catch a break. I loved watching her on the Sun this year.
