Impact Yueru suffered an ACL sprain in her left knee in mid-August that forced her to miss the final few weeks of the 2025 WNBA season. However, her return to action in Unrivaled suggests that she's moved past the injury this winter. Yueru made 31 appearances (12 starts) between the Storm and Wings in 2025, averaging 5.1 points and 3.7 rebounds in 14.3 minutes per game. She'll be a reserved player during the offseason, so the Wings will have exclusive negotiating rights with her if they extend her a qualifying offer.

Wings center Li Yueru is out for the season after spraining a knee ligament

Dallas Wings center Li Yueru will miss the rest of the season after spraining the ACL in her left knee against the Los Angeles Sparks last week

AUGUST 19, 2025 • Associated Press

Out for season Yueru will miss the rest of the season with an ACL sprain in her left knee, Melissa Triebwasser of Winsidr reports.

Impact Yueru suffered the injury during Friday's game against the Sparks, but she was able to return. But after further evaluation, the Wings have determined that her season is over. Yueru is expected to make a full recovery ahead of the 2026 season. In Yueru's absence, Luisa Geiselsoder may need to step into a larger role in the frontcourt.

Won't go Sunday Yueru (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Aces.

Impact Yueru will sit out Sunday's game with a left knee injury, her first absence since joining the Wings on June 14. The center has averaged 7.4 points and 5.8 rebounds in 20.0 minutes across 22 games (12 starts) with Dallas, though she's recently shifted more regularly into a bench role.

AUGUST 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable to play Sunday Yueru is questionable to play Sunday against the Aces due to a left knee injury.

Impact Yueru hasn't missed a game since being absent for two straight games in mid-June. However, the questionable tag suggests the center might be a game-time call for Sunday's 3:30 p.m. ET tipoff. Yueru shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy upside, though. She's averaging only 5.8 points and 4.4 rebounds per game since the All-Star break.

Rolls up 20 points off bench Yueru finished with 20 points (7-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and two steals over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 81-80 win over Indiana.

Impact Yueru bounced back nicely after going socreless late time out. In fact, in her first four games in August, she was averaging just 2.5 points per game while shooting just 15.8 percent (3-19 FG) from the field, so this performance certainly was shocking. It was her first time scoring at least 10 points since July 22, a span of 10 games.
