Bird Breaks Nose (Beak?)
Euroleague's having its playoffs/tournament/whatever it is they do, and UMMC Ekaterinburg (Sue Bird & Svetlana Abrosimova's team) played Ros Casares Valencia (Lauren Jackson, Ann Wauters, and Maya Moore).
Unfortunately, during the warm-ups Sue Bird got hit in the face (?) and broke her nose. This is the third (!) time she's broken her nose. She says she'll be able to play on Thursday, though. (With a protective face mask, of course.)
Without Bird, Ros Casares rolled right over Ekaterinburg. LJ tweeted: "Hey lovelies, thanks for the support. 1 down 3 to go, sending love out to birdy, wud have been a different game with her playing for sure:-("
