Insane. The amount of injuries this team endures. Do we know if it happened in game or practice? An unusual amount seem to take place in practice as well. I’m not suggesting anything other than some crazy bad luck

It's beyond bad luck.

Come back strong, Cheli! Sophomore season is your year!

Sorry Morgan, you are my Husky surprise of the year. Love to watch her play, hustle every play, a true ball hawk. Plus, she has an unbeatable smile.

Is this is the ankle she's been having problems with since high school?

 

[RockyMTblue2]

She loses a lot of the maturing part of this season and it will put more pressure on her sophomore year. A likeable young lady with a lot more in her.

Is there any sense of how much of 2025-26 she will be able to play? I have no idea what to expect.

Pretty sure they expect her to be back and ready for the start of the season

She doth play with great abandon.

She has had an unlucky basketball career as far as I can tell. Missed significant time during her junior and senior years of high school. And now missed at least a third of her first college season.

Is this a practice injury? It seemed like she played in a game and was fine. And then they next time we saw her she was wearing a boot.

Hope Morgan heals well and is ready to go at the start of next season.

 

[ConnMotors]

She made her mistakes and didn’t score much enjoyed watching her play. Getting up off of the floor was her specialty. That’s why she was a gamer and I liked her. Get well soon.

 

[Ouremblem]

What a bummer. Get well soon, Morgan. Has anyone seen an update on Ice Brady?

UConn women's basketball freshman Morgan Cheli will miss remainder of the season with ankle injury

It is not surprising that more injuries happen in practices than in games, given how much more time the team spends practicing than playing.

 

[JellyBean]

Wow! This stinks. I am wishing Morgan full and safe recovery.

 

[Basingstoke]

Here's hoping for a full and speedy recovery and an end to the succession of injuries that have befallen her in the last few years.
Considering that she's a freshman, I find nothing that cannot be remedied in her performance this year. She's got a high motor and basketball IQ, and I expect that she will shed any hesitancy she displayed this year next season. I fully expect that she will be a UCONN standout in the nextc3 years.

Hope Morgan makes a speedy recovery.

 

[Charliebball]

Sad news.....I also wonder if it's the same ankle that she had issues with in high school and over last summer....such a sweet kid off the court yet a warrior on the court...........a prototypical Husky!!

 

[Tonyc]

Get well soon. Sending prayers. God bless

It was said she had injuries before she left high school. Are they Geno’s fault too?

 

[reelfan]

UCONN NEEDS a stuffed roster 2025-26 as insurance for the inevitable.

 

[UCTitleTown]

Who do you think will get her 12 minutes per game now?

 

[uconnever]

I am down on next years recruits not totally but a little, and the future of the team, but Morgan was a player I was high on, as someone said, this time she’s missing is really important for her future, this exact scenario is why Paige and Azzi are taking a while to show that we have the best backcourt in the country which I know they are but without consistent playing year in and out, it impedes your growth. Morgan’s in game experience is really important for our future.

Mostly, UCONN remain mute on injuries we don't sere occur. She could have done it jumping off a bed in a dorm room. Aaron Boone tore up his knee, at the height of his Baseball career, in a pick up BB game.

Now I know that it will never happen. All season long I was hoping to see Caroline, Ashlynn and Morgan on the court at the same time. For some reason I believe that they bring the same qualities to the team.
Maybe next season?
