Awsome,

That is great news!!!

One thing about RX WNBA is that everyone has always helped each other......I know since 2007 this little WNBA group that we have right here is the jewel of what the forums are are all about...sharing and helping each other.

Im working on Bookie Buster. He was a totals guy and a great asset to the RX.

atlanta dream- angel is listed in probable starting lineup on wnba.com , but the way the line is slowly dropping, makes me wonder if she plays

@kidma, don't know if you read this already, but "best" thing about McCoughtrys status I could find was this part in a preview for tonights game:
As coach Marynell Meadors walked by, McCoughtry loudly answered, “Hopefully, coach will let me come in a little bit. Maybe 10-12 [minutes].”

McCoughtry sprained her left knee May 25 during practice. Until Wednesday, she hadn’t been able to practice and didn’t play in Sunday’s season-opening loss to New York.

Meadors said she thought McCoughtry looked fantastic Wednesday and hopes she can play, but won’t decide until Thursday. The trainers need to see how McCoughtry’s knee reacts to Wednesday’s practices, in which she competed with the first team in a few of the sessions. Meadors said the worst thing she can do is bring McCoughtry back too soon and risk a re-injury or setback.

McCoughtry said the swelling has gone down a lot and the knee still is slightly inflamed, but McCoughtry said she can handle that.

thanks soriano, i am hopefully she sees action tonight, but atl played pretty well without her

 

[kidman232]

Tulsa Shock- Amber Holt is out 4-6 weeks with a broken thumb. avgs 7.5 ppg and logs a lot of mins. a big injury to a bad team

 

[kidman232]

atlanta- angel montgomery upgraded to probable tonight vs. wash

 

[EveryGamblersDream]

Holt being out is huge for that team as she is their most consistent scorer & knows the system the best. Swoopes will be starting in place of Holt.

 

[kidman232]

tulsa- elizabeth cambage questionable for tuesday (leading scorer)

 

[kidman232]

Tulsa- Cambage is out tonight, with a nose injury. Fairly shocked by this as she said she wanted to go back in last 6 mins and they wouldnt let her although she felt fine.

 

[Canegrad05]

So Tulsa is losing two starters for this game? Seems like a good time to take the favorite to cover, no?

 

[kidman232]

tulsa is without 2 of their starters, but 14 is a lot to lay in the wnba. Indiana is @ seattle on friday, so they could possibly rest in 2h if its a blowout and allow tulsa to back door cover, id say first half indiana would be safer if u like indiana

 

[kidman232]

tulsa- cambage is doubtful tonight while dealing with a concussion. Tulsa's leading scorer and rebound

atlanta- sancho lyttle is out for the next 5 games while competing for spains national team. 2nd leading scorer for atlanta

 

[kidman232]

indiana- katie douglas injured her tailbone in the 1st qtr, is doubtful for rest of game. indiana's leading scorer

 

[EveryGamblersDream]

Lauren Jackson is OUT for tonight's game against the Lynx & is listed day to day with a hip strain. She aggravated the hip which was already a bit banged up. This was announced on their Twitter page.

 

[kidman232]

Candice Parker (la)- is out 6 weeks with knee injury. big loss, leading scorer

thanks again to sports options with the fast injury news
