Sky vs Tempo

Aicha Coulibaly

CHI · G

Knee: Coulibaly's rookie year comes to an end due to a knee injury. She'll be looking to take a step forward next year after averaging 5.2 points, 2.6 rebounds and 0.7 steals per game this year for the Sky.

Aneesah Morrow

TOR · F

Knee: Brittney Sykes (foot) will also miss the final eight games for Toronto. According to coach Sandy Brondello, Morrow is not facing a lengthy recovery. Kia Nurse and Ornella Bankole are candidates to step into larger roles the rest of the way.

Azura Stevens

CHI · F

Knee: Steven is sidelined Thursday with a knee injury, ending her regular season. The veteran forward is under contract with the Sky for 2027, and she averaged 10.6 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 blocks per game in 2026.

Brittney Sykes

TOR · G

Foot: This is a tough blow for Toronto, but Sykes' foot issues have continued to linger. She will finish the campaign with averages of 18.6 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.5 blocks in 29.4 minutes per contest. Kia Nurse and Ornella Bankole could see larger roles the rest of the way with this news.

DiJonai Carrington

CHI · G

Foot: Carrington will end the season on the inactive list for a fifth consecutive contest due to a left foot injury. She'll finish the campaign having averaged 8.8 points, 3.1 rebounds, 0.6 assists and 0.6 steals in 16.2 minutes per game across 11 regular-season outings. She's set to enter unrestricted free agency this offseason following an injury-riddled year.

Elizabeth Balogun

TOR · G

Not Injury Related: Balogun remains away from the Liberty for the regular-season finale Wednesday. It's unknown if she'll report to the club at any point this postseason.

Maria Conde

TOR · F

Back: Conde is sitting out the regular-season finale Thursday. The rookie forward is set to be a reserved free agent this winter but should receive a qualifying offer, having averaged 8.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game for Toronto in 2026.

Marina Mabrey

TOR · G

Hip: Mabrey, who has been sidelined since mid-August, will not require surgery and is expected to make a full recovery ahead of the 2027 WNBA season. Across 32 appearances, she produced averages of 20.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 0.9 steals.

Natasha Cloud

CHI · G

Knee: Cloud is out for the season finale Thursday with a knee injury. The veteran guard is slated to be an unrestricted free agent this winter, having averaged 11.1 points, 4.8 assists, 3.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals per game for the Sky this year.

Nyara Sabally

TOR · F

Knee: Sabally is coming off a career year with the Tempo, during which she averaged 12.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.9 blocks across 23.9 minutes per contest. However, she was limited by injuries, appearing in only 24 regular-season games (20 starts). She has already begun her rehab process and will be a restricted free agent this offseason.

Rickea Jackson

CHI · F

Knee: The season-ending knee injury is a devastating development for Jackson and the Sky, as the 25-year-old forward was well on her way to a career-best campaign. Through Chicago's first four games, Jackson averaged 18.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.8 blocks and 1.5 three-pointers in 29.5 minutes per contest. After Jackson's early exit in Sunday's contest, Aicha Coulibaly opened the second half with the starters and looks to be the most likely candidate to move into the top unit for the Sky's next game Wednesday versus the Wings.

Skylar Diggins

CHI · G

Knee: She will now "focus on recovering an aggravated right knee injury." She hadn't played since July 3 and her rehab didn't progress as quickly as she would've hoped. She appeared in 19 games and posted averages of 14.2 points, 3.2 rebounds and 4.9 assists.

Temi Fagbenle

TOR · C

Personal: Fagbenle won't rejoin the team for the regular-season finale due to personal reasons. She's set for unrestricted free agency this offseason, having averaged 5.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.0 assists for the Tempo this year.
