Not so good news - Paige (merged thread)

[PoppaBear]

That's so sad. Wishing her a speedy recovery

Thinking of Paige and sending healing thoughts her way. May the surgery and recovery period go smoothly.

 

[BBallF]

I'm in tears for her. I have no words.

Classy message from Caitlin Clark:
"Praying for you, Paige Bueckers! Someone who is so good for our game!
Can’t wait to see you come back even stronger!"

Her surgery is on Friday.

 

[uconnever]

Stunned, this year she was going to do special things. We need another guard badly now. Someone to back up Nika.

 

[WFFL]

Didn't kelsey plum tear her achilles in sort of the same fashion ? Playing pick up ? Now look at her an MVP candidate Paige will comeback even better mark my words !!

 

[Carnac]

First of all, I’m devistated. Secondly, I hope Geno has a plan B, because plan A just went down and will go under the knife Friday. No Paige this season opens the door for whoever would have been the first or second player off the bench, to step up into a starting role. SMH...... Why us again?

 

[darkstar1]

Shocking news. Feel so bad for Paige. Was so looking forward to her playing.

 

[KingKong139]

Makes you wonder…..prayers up to Paige.

 

[huskeynut]

For one who is so young yet so mature. She continues to impress.

Sad to see her facing yet another setback. Unfortunately it’s in the same knee that sidelined her this past season. The initial injury also included ligament damage. Hoping she’s able to recovery fully and get back to doing what she does best.

Without her it will never be the same….she is magic….a winner and it would take me pages and pages to describe PAIGE….one of my saddest days ever…..G-d bless her….GO HUSKIES!!’

 

[ThatCG1801]

Very, very sorry to hear about this. Paige is a vivacious and extremely talented player and I hate the struggles that have been put in front of her last year and now once again. I sincerely hope she has a quick and full recovery. Even as a fan of another team, the game won't be the same without her.

[Dynastic]

Selfishly when I heard immediately I thought of my own love of Uconn and Paige’s ability and impact, which is wrong I really feel bad for her and her family and her unmistakeable passion for the game… Paige will be sorely missed by friends and foes!

 

[WFFL]

Azzi will step up big time this year you all just watch !! This is going to motivate her to really become the next great one i have faith we all should !!

 

[caramel]

I am stunned and I hurt for her. The best I can do is pray for her recovery and her overall health. One good thing about her is that she is a warrior and will come back stronger both mentally and physically. She is a true blessing for those that are around her!

 

[Zanzman]

Makes you wonder…..prayers up to Paige.

Wonder about what

 

[Luckystrike]

I noticed Morgan started following a Spanish guard who played in the FIBA European U20 championships and wondered why she was doing that. Now we know.

Just devastated for Paige.

Who?

 

[JRRRJ]

Damn.

Keep your joy, Paige. The wheel goes 'round, and you are loved by so many you've touched that you'll never meet.

 

[oldude]

I’m trying to think of something comforting to write, but I have no words of comfort. Knowing how much basketball means to Paige, and how much Paige means to all of us, this news really hurts.

 

[Beemer]

I just feel sick right now. Paige worked so hard to rehab that knee injury last season so she could come back and nearly led them to a national title. Now this.

Hang in there Paige and know that your Husky family is behind you all the way <3

 

[Woof 101]

Today Huskies and The Horde are crying.... Wishing her well and a speedy recovery.....

 

[ucbart]

Wonder about what

Poor Paige-Get well soon!

It certainly makes me wonder if she is going to be snake bit with injuries her entire career and not reach her full potential.
