STORRS, Conn. – UConn women's basketball sophomore forward Ayanna Patterson will miss the remainder of the 2023-24 season.
Patterson underwent surgery on her left knee Thursday at UConn Health.
Patterson has not appeared in a game this season. As a freshman in 2022-23, she appeared in 30 games and averaged 2.2 points and 2.2 rebounds per game.
Statement from Head Coach Geno Auriemma
Ayanna's been dealing with patellar tendonitis since high school. She's been rehabbing and undergoing treatments and decided with our medical staff that it was time to take care of the issue. We'll support Yanna through her rehab process and we anticipate she'll make a full recovery. We look forward to having her back with the team on the court.
