Overview
- Sabally announced Wednesday that she will not play for Germany at the FIBA Women’s World Cup in Berlin, scheduled for Sept. 4–13.
- She has been sidelined since a concussion suffered on June 23 during a game against Las Vegas and has continued to experience symptoms.
- The New York Liberty placed Sabally away from the team so their performance and medical staff can manage her recovery, and coach Chris DeMarco said health is the priority.
- Reporting says Sabally has cleared formal concussion protocol but is not fully recovered and no timeline has been set for her return to play.
- Her absence removes a projected frontcourt leader for Germany and deepens uncertainty about Sabally’s availability for New York after this marks her second concussion in about a year.
