Stef has not been practicing due to stress injuries on left foot and right ankle. However, she is expected to play on Saturday

Been a bad year for Geno and the team with minor injuries for all the players Then there was the major injury for Banks.

Wow that sucks indeed. Frustrating as those "stress reactions" or whatever they are called, seem to linger for weeks or months...

These injuries are surely getting annoying but the fact she can play on Saturday is a big plus. Kind of scary thought, a reoccurring problem with stress reactions is what sidelined my favorite tennis player forever. Monica was supposed to come back in 2 months, then it was 6 then it was never.

Oh no, not Stef, too !! :(

Is it asking too much for ALL players of ALL teams to stay healthy?! <sigh> I know it's not realistic ... just wishful thinking .......

As far as I know Stef has been limited in practice even before the Vandy game.

Her quote doesn't say that the "problem" is a stress problem. Could be, but she doesn't say that it is. Trying to look on the bright side.

Don't know if the stabbing entered the picture psychologically in combination.

It might, also, give insight to Stef's less than all out domination in the last two games.

These nagging, annoying injuries to just about everyone - and the season ending injury to Brianna - are concerning. But, there is little we can do about it so no sense worrying. Every team has to deal with injuries, some more than others. These kids are pretty tough, and they will give everything they have in them for the remaining games in the season.

Stef injured the ankle during the season can't recall game. Foot problem appears to be a new injury.

Too many minutes and pounding in practice.

Agreed. Who cares what injuries Tuck and Stokes have had. Or the struggles Stewart has had. There's no reason a starter should play almost 27 minutes a game.... :confused:

Falls right into my discredited theories (by this board)
There is no reason that Stef had to play so many minutes this season with adequate replacements sitting on the bench.

Name the adequate replacements - and how many minutes should she have played? And please, identify which games she should have played less minutes. As I noted, she's averaging just under 27minutes - and that's taking in logging major minutes against top opponents.
