Dallas Wings Forward Maddy Siegrist Undergoes Surgery for Fractured Finger

Dallas Wings forward Maddy Siegrist will be out approximately eight weeks following surgery on her fractured left index finger, sustained during a game against the Minnesota Lynx. This injury adds to an already injury-plagued season for the Wings, who are missing key players like Satou Sabally, Arike Ogunbowale, and Natasha Howard. Siegrist was having a breakout season, averaging 14.6 points and 4.2 rebounds per game, a significant increase from her rookie year. The Wings, currently sitting at 3-10, are struggling in the standings and might consider tanking for a better draft position. Siegrist's absence is expected to last until after the Olympic break in August. In the interim, the team has signed Morgan Bertsch and Monique Billings to hardship contracts to compensate for the depleted roster.
