The 2021 National Player of the Year missed 19 games with a knee injury before returning to action on Feb. 25 and playing the rest of the season. “I think Paige has to get healthy,” Taurasi said. “Making sure her body’s ready for eight months. Because it’s a long season, a lot of hard teams you play against, a lot of traveling. The kid works her ass off and loves basketball, so I’m not worried about that.” [/QUOTE]
