The Chicago Sky acquired Milic from the Minnesota Lynx along with the No. 7 overall pick from the 2024 WNBA Draft. However, she's yet to suit up for them this season, as reports say that she has plans to miss the 2024 season.

As for Elizabeth Williams, a knee injury has seen her listed out for the remainder of the 2024 campaign. The Sky announced earlier that the forward underwent successful surgery to repair her torn meniscus.

She will continue to rehab and recover for the upcoming season. Williams averaged 10.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.7 blocks in nine games this campaign.

The New York Liberty have two names on the injury list. Betnijah Laney Hamilton was GTD, according to Rotowire's latest update. She missed the last game against the Connecticut Sun after suiting up in the last three games.

NY has been taking precautionary measures to not rush the forward back to full-tilt action as they play the first leg of a back-to-back set Wednesday. Expect Kayla Thornton and Leonie Fiebich to have more minutes if she's rested on Thursday as well. Laney-Hamilton has been a vital cog for the Liberty, averaging 12.7 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 steals.

A back injury saw Nyara Sabally miss Wednesday's clash against the Sun, as she never entered the game. It's unclear if she will be rested against the Sky, as NY has yet to update her status, making her a GTD as well. Sabally has averaged 3.0 points and 3.1 rebounds this season.
