In the last two Olympic women’s basketball finals, Maya Moore started at small forward, and Angel McCoughtry was the first to sub in for Moore off the bench. Now it looks like neither player will be in Tokyo.
McCoughtry tore the ACL and meniscus in her right knee in a Las Vegas Aces preseason game on Saturday. The Aces retweeted a report that Moore will miss the rest of the year.
Moore last played competitive basketball in 2018, is on an indefinite break and appears set to miss the start of the WNBA season this weekend.
