Sabrina Ionescu dodges significant injury after scary ankle roll, out for at least 2 weeks

Sabrina Ionescu has avoided a significant injury after rolling her ankle and hurting her left foot in the New York Liberty’s preseason win over the Connecticut Sun

5 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Out at least two weeks Ionescu is expected to miss at least two weeks due to a left foot injury, Madeline Kenney of the New York Post reports Monday.

Impact An MRI showed Ionescu avoided a "significant injury," but it will still cost the superstar guard at least a handful of games. The severity and nature of the issue remain unknown, but the team is saying it's a foot injury after Ionescu appeared to roll her left ankle during Sunday's preseason finale. In her absence, Marine Johannes and Rebekah Gardner are candidates for increased roles to begin the campaign, but the offense will likely still run through Breanna Stewart, Jonquel Jones and newcomer Satou Sabally (reconditioning).
