Dream Falls 82-64 in Washington - Lehning Hurt?



Tried to watch the Dream's final game against the Mystics tonight, but Live Access absolutely refused to cooperate. I just gave up. Hopefully, ESPN2 and NBATV won't conk out on me.

We lost 82-64. We've not won a back-to-back all season. To top it off, Shalee Lehning went down in the first half. I'm hearing "shoulder separation" and "shoulder dislocation", which are two separate things.

Let's hope Lehning gets better and that everyone is healthy for the playoffs on Wednesday, wherever they might be.

It's my understanding that Lehning will be undergoing an MRI tomorrow or Monday. My impression is that the injury is serious enough to bench her for the season, but I also know better than to underestimate Shalee's tenacity.

Hope Joy will keep us informed. How was Shalee injured? We tuned the game in the second quarter...did not see the injury.

According to the AP report, Lehning was injured when she and Linsdey Harding were going after a loose ball late in the second quarter.

As soon as the injury happened Live Access went on the fritz. I would hate for Shalee to miss out on Playoffs during her Rookie season. She's tough so let's hope for the quickest recovery possible.

I should have an official update soon. Shalee's mom is on her way to Atlanta so she is very concerned. I'm heartbroken that Shalee may have to miss the playoffs that she worked so hard to help her team get to.

Hope Shalee is able to bounce back!
