INDIANAPOLIS — The Indiana Fever will be without Chloe Bibby for Friday’s game vs. the Minnesota Lynx.
The 6-foot forward has been dealing with “a little bit of soreness” in her left knee and “felt something pregame,” coach Stephanie White said, so the team is holding her out as a precaution. “We don’t know anything, so hopefully we’ll get more information tomorrow when she can be seen.”
Bibby signed a seven-day contract with the Fever in late July, then was inked to a rest-of-season deal on Aug. 1. She is averaging 3.9 points in 9.8 minute through nine games with Indiana.
Bibby was expected to play a bigger role Friday vs. Minnesota Lynx with Sophie Cunningham out for the season (MCL). The injury leaves the Fever with nine available players, including just one wing: Lexie Hull.
