Sydney Flames’ Isla Juffermans will be the remainder of the WNBL24 season after sustaining a knee injury.

The NSW junior, who is an amateur player with the Hoops Capital club this season, hurt her left knee at the recent under 20s national championships while representing NSW – helping them win a bronze medal in Ballarat.

“Isla underwent a knee arthroscopy last week and will miss the remainder of the season,” Flames CEO Chris Pongrass said.
