DiJonai Carrington, who plays guard for the Minnesota Lynx, cannot continue playing in the WNBA playoffs because she has a serious mid-foot sprain. An MRI scan showed how bad the injury was. She got hurt during the first-round games against the Golden State Valkyries.
People could see she was hurt at the end of Game 2, and later she was using crutches and wearing a boot. This is really bad news for the Lynx because Carrington is an important player who helps both in attack and defense. She scored 6 points in Game 1 and 11 points in Game 2 against the Valkyries.
She was also chosen for the all-defensive first team in 2024. During the regular season, she averaged 8.6 points per game and had great shooting percentages. Now the Lynx must change their plans for the semifinal games against Phoenix Mercury.
