Suppose I should wait for "official news" from MN Lynx but the web site is too slow in filtering news (if at all) - Seimone had an ESPN chat today - but not news worthy to put on the Lynx site I guess  but anyway, seem "social media" trumps news releases.
The west coast counterpart to M. Voepel in the Mid-west & M. Greenberg out East, Michelle Smith has tweeted the following :

Mel Greenberg posted a blog entry on the Lynx @ Lib game :

Michelle Smith also writes for FanHouse & here is her update:
| Quote: | | According to Wiggins' agent, Lindsay Kagawa, Wiggins will have surgery in Los Angeles on Friday. ... |

Glad her agent aided in hooking her up w/a specialist & getting it repaired asap so she can move on & just start to think about recovery. Also glad she'll be home with family for post-op recovery & a little TLC 
I can't help but feel like this hit Wiggs pretty hard as she loves the game so much & was just getting in the flow. The meniscus surgeries were just a bit of a bother compared to this injury. But once she gets over the shock & the surgery out of the way, she’ll find that sunshine she always manages to find when things get rough.
I have no doubt she’ll work her way back & be ready for next season  |
