Liberty's Isabelle Harrison sheds reminder of devastating knee injury

We've got you covered on the Liberty beat Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Madeline Kenney about all things Liberty and WNBA. tRY IT NOW For more than a year, Isabelle Harrison wore a bulky brace on her left knee. It was a constant reminder of her surgically repaired torn meniscus that kept her out for the 2023 season. Advertisement 'I hated looking at it,' Harrison said Monday. 'I hated seeing it in pictures; I didn't want to post them on social media. I was just really over it.' Harrison wasn't quite 100 percent last season when she suited up for the Sky. Even at Athletes Unlimited this offseason, Harrison said she was working her way back to full strength. Advertisement 3 Isabelle Harrison makes a move against the Connecticut Sun on May 9, 2025. Getty Images Two weeks ago, though, Harrison felt it was time to take that next step in her healing. Feeling as strong as she felt in years — both physically and mentally — she ditched the brace. She saw it as a sign of not only strength but improvement. Advertisement 3 Isabelle Harrison goes to the basket against the Toyota Antelopes in an exhibition on May 12, 2025. Getty Images 'I just kind of took a leap of faith because sometimes it's physical, but it's also mental,' Harrison said. 'I missed the whole year prior because of that, and I just didn't want to do anything to risk it. But I'm at a point now where … I have been put in a really good program for my weights. 'Taking it off, it was a little scary. I'm not going to lie. When I went to rebound I didn't want to step too far to the left. But again, over time, trusting myself, and it's a process.' Advertisement Harrison already made peace with the fact she'll never be the player she was before her most recent knee injury. Her focus now is on being whatever the Liberty need her to be. The first few weeks of training camp and this season were overwhelming at times for Harrison. The Liberty have numerous layers to their motion offense. And Harrison had never played in a five-out scheme. It took time for her to learn her new teammates' tendencies. But Harrison said she feels more comfortable with what's being asked of her every day. 3 Liberty forward Isabelle Harrison and Shakira Austin jockey for position in the paint on June 5, 2025 in Washington.

'Every day I feel like we layer it more and more and we make it more complex the more we get our chemistry together with everybody. But I've always enjoyed it. I love position-less basketball because you don't get stuck on one side of the floor, you're not looking for one person to score, everybody's pretty much involved and we have the personnel to really do that.' Harrison stepped up when Jonquel Jones went down with an injury in Thursday's win.

Trent Alexander-Arnold's Real Madrid presentation planned as Club World Cup plan emerges

Former Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold is likely to be presented as a Real Madrid player on Wednesday, with the right-back scheduled to fly to Spain following England's friendly against Senegal on Tuesday. Advertisement Xabi Alonso and his Madrid players are due to fly to the United States on Saturday ahead of the Club World Cup starting next week, which leaves a very small window for Alexander-Arnold's unveiling. The Alonso era at Madrid started on Monday, June 9, as he took his first training session since agreeing to replace Carlo Ancelotti as Los Blancos boss. Alexander-Arnold, of course, was not present as he is still on England duty, but he will be in the Spanish capital later this week ahead of the flight to the US.

Alexander-Arnold's move from Liverpool to Madrid was confirmed at the end of May, with the Spanish club paying the Reds an $11 million transfer fee — despite the player's Liverpool contract being due to expire just a few weeks later. That's because Madrid wanted Alexander-Arnold to be part of Xabi Alonso's squad for the start of the Club World Cup. Madrid could have waited until July 1 to sign Alexander-Arnold on a free transfer, and he would have been eligible to play in Los Blancos' remaining games in the tournament, but the Spanish giant was keen for the player to have a period of integration in the weeks building up to the revamped event. Advertisement Meanwhile, Alexander-Arnold has been told that he remains behind Kyle Walker in England's right-back pecking order by a Three Lions legend. Ahead of England's win over Andorra on Saturday, in which Curtis Jones was selected ahead of both players, Chris Waddle said: "It's hard to name a better English right-back [than Walker]. Trent Alexander-Arnold can be exceptional but he's not outstanding as a true defender. "He's got his talents, there's no denying it, with exceptional passing and dead-ball delivery, but if it's him or Walker, we're not blessed in that position for a young right-back who does what you expect. I think Kyle is the pick of the two right now, his all-round game puts him ahead of the rest."
