Dallas Wings struggle without Azzi Fudd ahead of Fever rematch
Summary

The Dallas Wings face challenges as they prepare to play the Indiana Fever without Azzi Fudd, who is sidelined due to a right knee injury. Fudd has missed six games this season, leading to a stark contrast in team performance: the Wings are 19-11 with her and just 1-5 without her. Her absence has been felt acutely in recent losses, including a defeat to the Golden State Valkyries. Dallas remains in playoff contention but must rely on other players to step up while they await updates on Fudd's return, which is currently uncertain. The Wings are set to host the Fever at American Airlines Center on Thursday night.
