Aces guard Jackie Young will replace Storm forward Katie Lou Samuelson on the United States Olympic women's three-on-three basketball team, USA Basketball announced Monday.
Samuelson was placed under USA Basketball's health and safety protocols Saturday and will be unable to participate in the Tokyo Olympics.
"I am devastated to share that after getting sick with COVID-19, I will not be able to go and compete in Tokyo," Samuelson said in a statement. "Competing in the Olympics has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl and I hope someday soon I can come back to realize that dream.
