Is Azzi Fudd playing tonight? Wings vs. Lynx injury report

The Dallas Wings will be facing the Minnesota Lynx to end the week, and they may be getting one of their key players back. Azzi Fudd didn’t play in the last game with a right knee injury, and her presence was missed after they lost to the Golden State Valkyries 94-76.

Fudd is listed on the injury report ahead of their game against the Lynx, and it would be big if they could get her back to face one of the best teams in the league.

Here is Fudd’s status going into the game.

Azzi Fudd’s injury status vs. Lynx

Fudd is listed as questionable against the Lynx, which means her status is up in the air for the matchup. It’s been a solid rookie season for Fudd, as she’s averaging 13.1 points per game while shooting 39.7 percent from the 3-point line.

Everyone knew that she would make a difference with her offense, but it’s her defense that has stood out this season, and she’s averaging 1.7 steals and 0.8 blocks per game.

“I came in just wanting to grow, wanting to learn,” Fudd said, via Melissa Triebwasser of IX Sports. “Knew I was going to be aggressive, knew I was going to take pride in my defense, but it’s not something I was looking to, like, ‘Oh, I want to get this many blocks, many steals, this many that.’ I just wanted to make things difficult for the other team, and I knew I’d be playing against the best women in the world, so it would be a challenge for me every single night, something that I could look forward to, and it has been.”

Fudd is one of the reasons why the Wings have been so successful this season, and if she continues to play at this level, it’ll be interesting to see how far the team goes.
