OT: Paige

[Vancat]

 

[auror]

Oof.

 

[uconngb]

I thought this was gonna be about some other crazy NIL deal she just signed. Yikes, tough break.

 

[Brochacho]

That sucks

 

[superjohn]

One of the awful realities of women's hoops/sports, they destroy their knees constantly.

Awful news.

 

[8893]

Brutal.

 

[storrsroars]

Tough news. ACL recovery for athletes is typically 6-9 months. March is 8 months away, so unless it's particularly bad, there should be a chance she's available come tourney time, although I wouldn't expect a lot of minutes.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Crushing news for Paige. Also for UConn and the fans. But she's such a competitor this has to be killing her, especially after the injury last year.

 

[UCDaveD]

Unfortunate

 

[Vancat]

Brutal is the word!

 

[HCCForever]

Feel so bad for the young lady. Reminds me of the tough injuries that Shea had. Hopefully, Paige recovers completely.

 

[Tenspro2002]

Well s___.

Now I'm sad.

 

[krinklecut]

I demand to know their stretching routine

 

[navery12]

Brutal news

 

[Scoe]

That’s awful, life is just unfair.

 

[Duncan Idaho]

Same knee

 

[Doctor Hoop]

Same knee

I was wondering that. She had a significant but apparently non-operative knee injury last year. Makes you wonder if the ACL was "slightly sprained" at the time.

 

[Vancat]

Weak in the knee.

 

[mauconnfan]

Wow Geno no ring again, that awful news.

She may never play in the Husky uni again. Get better and healthy and go to the WNBA thereafter.

 

[Marat]

Injuries have been devastating for Geno' s team recently. This is just awful for Paige and the team.

It's really bad luck. Some players are never injured, while others tend to be injury prone, ie Alterique Gilbert. ....

 

[Vancat]

 

[Scoe]

We were probably the only team that had a chance to knock off South Carolina’s repeat chances. Selfishly hoping she is back for the 2023-24 season im suse would advise here to enter the draft.

 

[Deepster]

Please move this to the womens board.

 

[RichZ]

Paige may end up being Geno's Akok Akok.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Wow Geno no ring again, that awful news.

She may never play in the Husky uni again. Get better and healthy and go to the WNBA thereafter.

She publicly stated she'd be here 4 years recently. But perhaps this changes that? I doubt it because she makes more from NIL than she would in the WNBA anyway.
