Three Phoenix Mercury stars recently returned from a trip to Paris , where they added some extra gold to their shelves . However , as the team prepares to face off against the Chicago Sky , they will be missing some key contributors .
Bec Allen will be out for the Mercury due to a right hamstring injury , while Charisma Osborne is sidelined with a left lower leg issue . On the other side , Elizabeth Williams will be missing from the Chicago Sky lineup due to a knee injury .
Allen sustained a high - grade hamstring injury during a warm - up game for the Australian team before the Olympic Games . Her return timeline has been labeled as indefinite , and she will undergo re - evaluation in the upcoming weeks . Osborne , who has been out since July , remains without a set timetable for her return . However , there have been signs of progress as she has been spotted in and out of a boot .
Williams ' absence dates back to June 6th when she suffered a meniscus tear during a game against Washington . Following surgery later that month , she has been ruled out for the rest of the season .
Despite the lineup challenges , the Phoenix Mercury are gearing up to take on the Chicago Sky in an upcoming game . The match is set to tip - off at 5:00 p.m. PST , providing an opportunity for other players to step up and fill the void left by the injured stars .
As the teams prepare to face off , fans are eagerly awaiting updates on the sidelined players and hoping for their swift recovery . Stay tuned for more updates on the Phoenix Mercury and Chicago Sky as the WNBA season progresses .
