JACY SHELDON NEWS

Ruled out for Tuesday Sheldon (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's regular-season finale against the Liberty, Tyler Byrum of Monumental Sports Network reports.

Impact Sheldon will miss her 12th consecutive game due to a right ankle injury, marking the end of her season. The second-year guard will finish the 2025 campaign with averages of 7.0 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists while shooting 43.6 percent from the field in 30 regular-season appearances (17 starts) between Washington and Connecticut. The fifth overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft was traded from the Wings to the Sun in February and appeared in 28 outings with Connecticut before being shipped to Washington in August. She logged just 31 minutes over two games with the Mystics and will aim to return to full health in 2026.

No timeline for return Sheldon (ankle), who has already been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Liberty, has no timetable for a return, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Head coach Sydney Johnson says Sheldon has not yet resumed 3-on-3 drills, and he isn't sure how close the guard is to returning to the floor. Sheldon can be considered out indefinitely until the Mystics provide another update on her recovery. With the 25-year-old sidelined, Sug Sutton should continue to act as the primary fantasy beneficiary of her absence.

AUGUST 28 • ROTOWIRE

Another absence coming Sheldon (ankle) is out for Thursday's game against the Liberty.

Impact A right ankle injury will keep Sheldon sidelined for a seventh straight contest Thursday. Her next chance to return to action comes Saturday in Golden State. Lucy Olsen should see an uptick in playing time against New York, while Sug Sutton should continue to handle a boost in ball-handling duties in the backcourt.

Ruled out Sunday Sheldon (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Storm, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Sheldon will miss her sixth consecutive game due to a right ankle injury and has yet to return to 5-on-5 drills, according to Copeland. Her next opportunity to suit up will come Thursday against the Liberty, though she can be considered doubtful until the Mystics provide another update on her status.

AUGUST 24 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to play Sunday Sheldon (ankle) hasn't participated in 5-on-5 practice yet and is not expected to be available for Sunday's game against Seattle, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Sheldon is still considered day-to-day by the coaching staff, but the fact that she hasn't been able to practice in 5-on-5 makes it uncertain as to when she'll be able to return to the court. The Mystics are playing on the second leg of a back-to-back set Sunday, though, so a definite status on her availability will come before Sunday's tip-off.

AUGUST 24 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Saturday Sheldon (ankle) is out for Saturday's game against the Aces.

Impact Sheldon will remain on the shelf for a fifth straight contest with an ankle injury. She can be labeled day-to-day, but the third-year guard faces a quick turnaround ahead of Sunday's tilt against the Storm. Jade Melbourne should continue to play a significant role in Washington's backcourt, while Lucy Olsen will remain a candidate for a rise in minutes off the bench Saturday.

AUGUST 22 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Tuesday Sheldon (ankle) is out for Tuesday's game against the Sun.

Unlikely to play Friday Sheldon (recently traded) will likely join the Mystics in Dallas ahead of Sunday's game against the Wings, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Sheldon was traded from the Sun to the Mystics on Thursday, and she'll likely be unavailable for Friday's matchup against Minnesota before officially joining the team. The Mystics traded Brittney Sykes to the Storm on Tuesday, so once Sheldon joins the team, she should have an opportunity to carve out a role in the backcourt.
