Maryland women’s basketball guard Lavender Briggs will miss the remainder of the 2023-24 season after suffering a knee injury in Wednesday’s game against Rutgers, it was announced by the team on Friday.
Briggs played a crucial role for the Terps this season, starting 10 games and coming off the bench in 11 more. She averaged 8.7 points and five rebounds per game while playing an average of 27.1 minutes per contest.
After an injury absence of more than a month earlier in the season, Briggs returned to the court with a bang. In her first game back against Nebraska on New Year’s Eve, she racked up 25 points on 11-for-17 shooting.
