That timeline means that she won’t be suiting up for the team’s May 15th season opener, with her potential return estimated around June 17th. Depending on her status, Cardoso might miss up to 13 games total, an absence that could have a serious impact on team development.
Fellow Sky rookie Bryanna Maxwell — drafted by Chicago No. 13 overall this year — will also be out three to four weeks with a knee injury.
“They’re working their butts off to get better and get themselves back into it,” Sky head coach Teresa Weatherspoon told Sun-Times reporter Annie Costabile. “This is a long season. We want to make sure we take care of each player.”
Cardoso is coming off of an undefeated NCAA national championship run with South Carolina, where she was named the Final Four’s Most Outstanding Player. A two-time national champion, the 6-foot-7 center racked up six points and four rebounds in 13 minutes of Friday’s 92-81 loss to the Lynx before exiting the game due to injury.
