Sept 15 (Reuters) - Chicago Sky head coach Pokey Chatman needs only a brief glance at Elena Delle Donne, one of the brightest stars in the WNBA, to know when the high-scoring forward is going to need a break.
"Pokey can look at me in the morning and tell how I'm doing," said Delle Donne, the league's top scorer. "And she'll know to give me more rest that day. We're on an eye-contact level at this point."
Delle Donne's fatigue and stiffness on certain days has nothing to so with the rigors of a Women's National Basketball Association season but with the lasting effects of Lyme disease.
