@nobarashxmmer@CannyZanny Her surgery took place exactly six days after her injury, which occurred on June 18, 2024, during a game against the Connecticut Sun. Brink shared her post-operation status directly on Instagram on June 25, 2024, letting fans know she had officially started her road to recovery.
There’s been no public information that she’s had the surgery yet.
Considering the elite level of prehab that professional athletes have access to I wouldn’t be surprised if she’s not already had the surgery. The standard for most regular people though is to wait at least 3 weeks.
From what’s been said, she’s out indefinitely. Also, they’ve said it’s zero rush and will be taking a very conservative approach with her return.
Similar to what they did with Janiah and the concussion protocol. She was out almost 4 weeks but was on the bench majority of that time. When routinely concussion protocol is about 7 to 10 days before return.
@bg0dly247@BKBSham_ She literally took a hard fall early in the first half and wasn’t moving well after so she didn’t play the 2nd half to be cautious. Had NOTHING to do with trust or her play.
Shut your dumb ass up.
@YaGirlJiggy@MattGre74172796 She wasn’t picked up on waivers.
She was waived right before the start of the season by Dallas and Connecticut signed her about a month into the season.
@othersidedj If you had to put a disclaimer then you shouldn’t have even said it.
I swear the brain God gave you is useless.
Assuming the worse is a poor mindset.
I just can imagine how you don’t have shit going on in your life worth a damn.
This is nasty work.
A’ja not smiling through every interview doesn’t mean she doesn’t love basketball. It means she’s the face of a team with championship expectations, constant scrutiny, roster changes, media narratives, and the weight of being held to MVP/DPOY standards every night.
Y’all confuse joy with performance. Some players show love for the game through smiling and theatrics. Some show it through preparation, accountability, dominance, and refusing to be comfortable when the team isn’t meeting its standard.
Also, “I wonder about her headspace” is a weird way to frame it when you don’t know her. You’re watching clips and projecting a whole emotional diagnosis onto somebody who’s simply taking her job seriously.
A’ja has earned the right to be competitive, frustrated, focused, or blunt without people turning it into “she doesn’t love the game anymore.” That’s not analysis. That’s fan fiction.
I’ll just say it. I wonder about A’ja’s headspace. Watching her interviews now and over the past few months there’s an energy I feel. I could be VERY wrong but it’s like she not having fun & acting like this is an obligation instead of something she loves.
AT quite literally plays the exact same. 🤣
Her stats are virtually identical from 2023 & 2024.
Burton was brought in to fill a role as a BACKUP PG & she played 13mpg during the regular season and that went up to 20mpg during the playoffs.
What were you expecting her to do on an already established veteran team? You’re not making any sense.
@MattGre74172796@YaGirlJiggy AT plays the exact same as she has for years.
Steph is the one who even gave Burton a chance to play, she was out of the league before Steph brought her to CT.
So, this take is dumb.
Shut your bitch ass up.
If you’re going to speak on someone at least spell their names correctly. It’s Jewell Loyd.
Jackie Young has been dealing with serious personal issues unrelated to basketball maybe just maybe her as a human matters more than your dumb ass takes on her play on the court.
Worry about getting life insurance, if you lost your job tomorrow being able to survive for more than a week, building generational wealth. Do that.
Maybe Chennedy wasn’t wrong . Megan said she never was respected on the aces until she got to Portland . Did Becky have Megan and Kiah Stokes on a leash too? They look better outside of Vegas
No one is talking about Connecticut’s facilities. The point is attendance and demand when the market is given access to bigger venues.
Atlanta plays in an arena under 4K and consistently sells it out. Then when they got the opportunity to play at State Farm Arena earlier this season, they sold that out too. That’s the point: the demand traveled upward when capacity increased.
So this isn’t about “double standards.” It’s about whether fans show up when the team is placed in a bigger building. If you’re arguing a market deserved to keep a team, then the strongest proof is selling out the small venue and showing up when the ceiling is raised.
Connecticut had a chance to make a louder statement in a bigger venue, especially knowing the situation around the team, and they didn’t fully capitalize. That’s the conversation. Not practice facilities. Not Dallas. Not deflection. Just demand.
@Queen_LIZabethh Atlanta!!! Why doesn’t anyone talk about their facilities!!! I believe Dallas is moving into a new arena in a couple of years, seats 10,000. The double standards are crazy
Post this:
I think the point is y’all keep crying about losing the team and how much the market “deserved” to keep it, but when the team got a bigger-arena opportunity in the same state in the city people claimed they would’ve preferred over Uncasville, y’all still didn’t sell it out.
And that’s with everyone knowing this was basically the last hoorah.
Also, comparing that to the Mystics is lazy because context matters. Washington primarily plays at CareFirst Arena, which only holds a little over 4K, and their larger games at EagleBank are still under 8K. So if they’re averaging around 6K, that’s actually strong relative to their building sizes.
