Washington Wizards fans know the pain of what it feels like when a franchise star has a ruptured Achilles tendon. That’s because John Wall will be out for at least one calendar year since the news was reported last February.
Now, you can add the WNBA’s Seattle Storm to the list of teams that will have an uncertain future because their franchise star may also have the same injury.
Seattle’s best player and 2018 WNBA MVP Breanna Stewart suffered a lower right leg injury while playing for Russian team Dynamo Kursk in the FIBA EuroLeague Women championship game against Russian rival UMMC Ekaterinburg.
