First-year Minnesota Lynx player Emma Cechova is scheduled to undergo an MRI examination on her right knee Friday, according to a report from The Athletic.
The 21-year-old center sustained the injury during a third-quarter collision with Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers in Minnesota’s 90-86 victory Thursday evening in Arlington, Texas.
Team medical personnel quickly attended to Cechova, who clutched her knee in obvious discomfort before receiving assistance to exit to the locker room.
The player from the Czech Republic concluded Thursday’s contest with two points and two rebounds across 11 minutes of play.
Through her first three games of the season, she has posted averages of 8.3 points and 3.7 rebounds while playing 17.3 minutes per game as a reserve.
