[Bone Dog]

A little ray of sunshine?

I sincerely hope that she comes back to the US to receive the best medical care.

Unfortunately, it does sound like she tore her acl.

Out the rest of the season. This goes far beyond just Euro Ball. She might not even be able to go to training camp and get cut. Truly devastating circumstances.

 

[Cuango]

Prayers and best wishes for our Nika!

Brokenhearted.

The agony in her voice... oy.

Just breaks my heart for Nika. She must have really torn it up for such a tough girl to express such agony. Said a prayer for her. Love that kid.

Heartbroken for Nika. I know she'll come back stronger than ever.

The game was in the SuperCup and the MVP was one Gabby Williams. Bittersweet for Husky Nation.

That Young lady is one of the tuffest kid I've ever seen at UConn, Women or Men!! For her to react in that way, Damn, Heartbreaking . Wishing all the best to one of my ALL TIME FAVORITES!!

Nika's my girl and to hear her scream & cry like that is awful. It must have scared the hell out of her. I'm devastated for her.

You got this Nika and you've got all of UConn nation pulling for you!!!

I could not tell if the injury occurred as she came down or from the player hitting her lower body or both. Terrible sound track. Gut wretching: "Don't touch it."

The ironic thing about Besiktas, Nika's team, playing in this game, they shouldnt have.
This game normally is the winners of the Euroleague and Euro Cup, from last season.
Besiktas lost the Euro Cup to the London Lions. However, the Lions ownership, late last season said they would not field a WBB team to play on the International level. So Besiktas, the runner up took their place. The Lions still have a team that plays in the British WBL, a weak league IMO, and no international players to speak of.

Our Nika - getting some help at medal time:

 

[Skeets]

My heart breaks,

 

[PAHuskeyFan]

Every Husky fan in every part of the World loves you Nika and we are praying for your full recovery.

 

[Dugway]

Had to have killed her; the knee is horrible enough! But also, with all of Nika’s fashion senses, to have to wear that gawd awful uniform.

Blessings certainly are around the corner for her!

She has unfortunately joined the UConn torn ACL club.

 

[Gus Mahler]

Another ACL. <moan>

I was so expecting her to use her Euro season to develop her game. Big setback.
