Paige is practicing

Nika and Caroline on sidelines

I was really hoping to have Caroline back this Friday. I was hoping these 5 days off would provide enough additional rest for her to resume playing. :( What's with all of these foot problems lately? Nika Muhl says her right foot is bothering her a little.
 
Keep Paige from her self , that is her biggest enemy right now. She is a tough athlete who wants to play, despite her injury . Her limitations are set by doctors and coaches , she thinks she can play through anything . Like a thoroughbred that breaks there leg, but still wants to run. Protect her from her self PLEASE !!!

I sincerely hope they have Paige's best interests at heart when she starts Friday night. I certainly would limit her time on the court. I'd like to see them set a number where they are committed to playing her under 35 minutes.

Oh please if the bone is healed she will start playing soon. Stop all the whining if she wasn't ready she would not be out their. Best of luck to you Paige stay healthy.

She definitely won't be playing after her first practice back from a major injury that kept her out for 2 months. I don't know where you get your sources from.
 
If you go by one of the videos ….one of the sequences shows Paige driving to the middle of the lane and pulling up strong and hitting a jumper.
I believe she could play last game of the season….and get strong minutes in BE Tournament.
 
I have heard that Paige has incentives in her NIL deals that pay massive bonuses for her being named Player of the Year again. She will not risk winning that award by not playing Friday night. I personally believe that she will want to make a statement and will try to put up Caitlin Clark like numbers. I won't be one bit surprised if she gets 40 shots up against Xavier and goes for 50 points.

Whoever you heard that from hasn’t thought it all the way through. There is no way, after missing that much of the season, she is even going to be considered for BE POY or any of the NPOY awards. If the stars align, she’s maybe the MOP at the BE tournament.

NPOY is (very deservingly) Aliyah Boston’s, despite the late rumblings for Caitlin Clark, and nothing Paige can do over the next month and a half will change that part narrative.

One of the dumbest posts I've ever seen on the boneyard.

A few years ago a TN player had a head injury or concussion in Nov or Dec. She did not play the rest of the year.
I’m getting worried about CD. :(

a former Yankees player had the same issues after running into the outfield fence in spring training. Never was the same.

Just to be clear. NIL rules expressly prohibit performance based incentives. So Paige earns whatever her contracts state whether of not she scores another point this season.

Well said, Paige could be the best comeback story of the year, particularly if she could lead us to a championship, but Boston has earned POY awards, and has a pretty good story behind it as well. She was great as a freshman, but dropped off last year when she also had a couple of games where she missed last second putbacks in heartbreaking losses.

She came back this year with a totally reformed body, lost weight, increased strength, speed, and vertical jump substantially, and has dominated very good competition. She has a comeback story as well, and as much as I would like Paige to have a shot at it, not this year.

No Chance of that happening, sorry (just in case that was not intended to be sarcastic)

Do I/We miss Paige out on the court? ABSOLUTELY! Do we want her to play, Of Course. BUT, I'd rather she take a few more weeks off or preferably NOT play at all so next year she'll be 100% next year. I'd hate to she her rush and re-injure herself.
Expand ...

This is what I'm afraid of. I know she wants to play. I know the team wants her to play. I know everybody here wants her to play.

The pressure to get back out there soon is unspoken but it is there. I really hope Paige listens to her body and if it isn't right she has the courage to say so. I'd hate to see her suffer a setback.
 
Stop with all the negative thoughts
If she plays is because the medical staff…coaches and herself know what her options are. It is obvious she is not going to wait if cleared to play….it is her decision and she knows best….all this prognostications of doom are without merit, What happened to others has no bearing on her decision.
