Aari McDonald - WNBA News, Rumors, & Updates

Will miss rest of Unrivaled season McDonald has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2026 Unrivaled season due to a right lower extremity injury.

Impact McDonald missed the final month of the 2025 WNBA season due to a right foot injury, but it's not yet clear whether her current ailment is related to that issue. She had appeared in one game for the Breeze Basketball Club in Unrivaled prior to being ruled out for the year, and she recorded two points and a rebound in six minutes of playing time. It's unclear whether her injury will impact her availability for the start of WNBA training camp, but she's slated to be an unrestricted free agent ahead of the 2026 campaign.
