Las Vegas Aces Star Sidelined with Foot Injury
WNBA Legend Faces Extended Absence
Two-time WNBA MVP Candace Parker is facing an extended absence from the court after undergoing surgery for a foot injury. The Las Vegas Aces announced on Monday that Parker will be out indefinitely following the procedure.
Parker, 38, has been dealing with a foot injury since the 2023 season. According to CBS Sports, she underwent surgery for a fractured foot. Parker has been on the Aces' inactive list since her last game appearance on July 7.
The Aces released a statement on Tuesday, saying that Parker "will be out indefinitely while she recovers from the procedure." The statement did not provide a specific timeline for her return.
Parker is a key player for the Aces, who are currently in first place in the WNBA standings. She is a two-time WNBA MVP and an eight-time All-Star. Parker was also a member of the gold medal-winning U.S. Olympic team in 2008, 2012, and 2016.
The Aces will miss Parker's leadership and experience on the court. She is a versatile player who can score, rebound, and defend. The Aces will need to find a way to replace her production while she is out.
