Lobo LaTora Duff plans big season, but must start without twin sister

LaTora Duff has never played as a solo act, but that is about to change.

Part of the University of New Mexico women’s basketball team’s senior twin sister tandem, Duff is preparing to open the 2021-22 season without her sibling in uniform.

LaTascya Duff underwent non-basketball-related surgery Aug. 10 and will miss at least the nonconference portion of the Lobos’ upcoming season. LaTascya said she has a follow-up appointment scheduled Oct. 28 that may shed more light on whether she can return to action this season.

“We’ll see,” LaTascya said after a Lobos practice this week.
