Knee injury sidelines Atlanta Dream's Canada for weeks

Atlanta Dream point guard Jordin Canada will miss at least two weeks due to a right knee injury sustained during a preseason game, impacting the team's start to the season. Canada's injury occurred Wednesday morning when her knee buckled while defending a shot. The team announced the two-week absence on Friday after imaging, with a re-evaluation planned. She is the only true point guard on the roster. The Dream, under new coach Karl Smesko, are hoping for a fresh start with key free agent signings. Canada's absence is a setback, as she is a strong playmaker and defensive player.
