UConn women’s basketball guard Azzi Fudd will miss three to six weeks with a right knee injury, the team announced on Tuesday. The injury occurred in the first quarter of the Huskies’ loss to Notre Dame on Sunday.
As Fudd went to shoot, Aaliyah Edwards was pushed and fell into her leg, which caused the sophomore’s right knee to twist awkwardly. She attempted to continue playing but struggled to move up and down the court and went to the bench. After being treated by team athletic trainer Janelle Francisco and going back to the locker room, Fudd briefly returned in the second quarter but came out after just a few minutes.
