Diagnosed with torn ACL
Cechova was diagnosed with a torn ACL in her right knee Friday and will undergo season-ending surgery, Meghan L. Hall of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Cechova suffered the non-contact knee injury during Thursday's 90-86 win over Dallas and required assistance getting off the floor. After undergoing an MRI on Friday, she was diagnosed with a torn ACL, ending her rookie season. The 21-year-old appeared in three regular-season games, and she will finish the 2026 campaign averaging 8.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, 0.3 steals and 0.7 blocks across 17.3 minutes per tilt. With Cechova sidelined, Anastasiia Kosu will likely see increased playing time.
