Mystics star guard and forward Elena Delle Donne will not play against the Dream on Friday and her status remains uncertain for the remainder of the 2021 season.
Washington head coach Mike Thibault told reporters on Thursday that the two-time WNBA MVP is dealing with nerve pain resulting from her back injury.
"She is probably not going to play all weekend and I am not sure about the rest of the year, I don't know yet," Thibault said.
Delle Donne, who turned 32 on Sunday, has not played in a game in 14 days, missing the Mystics' last four after returning to the court on Aug.
