Jana in final stages of rehab

Honestly, I'm more impatient to just see her persona on the court. I'm predicting she will be as big a fan favorite as Nika.

I wonder if this is to get clearance to play during the summer session which starts in a couple of weeks? Or would she still be limited just to be on the safe side like Paige was last summer?

There’s about 6 more months until the season starts. Still lots of time to figure things out

Her clearance has to come from our team trainers and medical personnel, not from elsewhere. Been waiting for it seems like forever to see her be big on the Husky home court.
Ever since I saw her video playing BB for Egypt's national team in the FIFA games, I have been saying JANA will start the season on opening day. JANA was a beast on rebounds and scored with lay-ups, mid-court shots and the CAPPER, she scored with 3's., She knows BB and can defend as well. Being so big, she moves vert well on the court and from the FIFa games video, was not intimidated and pushed around. I am drooling in anticipation of JANA playing for UCONN. With the team roster we now have, UCONN will be ALL other teams problem. We have the two essentials for a perfect season, Scoring and Defense. GO HUSKIES!!!!!

What role...if any...do the Paris Olympics have in this? Did Egypt qualify? Does she have participation in Paris
as a priority? If our medical staff does not clear her for action and the Egypt medical staff does...what will she do?
Can't wait to see her come out 24-25 season. Her skills and her personality just shine...stay healthy.

Of course, no one said that she’s cleared. But she’s in the final stages of her rehab. Which can be 2/3 months left. Just like Paige went to LA a lot to have rehab with off campus doctors, Jana’s doing the same thing. At least she’s not at home (Egypt) sitting around. She’s still working. I’m sure the coaches will rest her during the summer but she did start practicing and warming up with the team at the end of the season. So she’s close which is always a nice sight to see.

She’s been doing limited activities. She was doing pre-game warmups for a while

JMHO I think Jana will be quite a revelation to UConn fans and the WBB world as a whole!

If she's anything like she was on the bench this season, I agree.
She definitely can’t afford to injure herself this year. We have no one to replace her. But when she is ready, I can’t wait to see her too.

Really. Hard to believe one of you said it and the other Loved it.
Not yet because we haven't seen her "Big Love" on the court. It won't take long.
The recovery time for me was way shorter for the Achilles than it was for a knee. The other thing that was interesting was mentally the Achilles injury didn't have the same level of fear of a repeat of the injury that the knee had, at least for me.
