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. Getty Images Advertisement 'It's like a light bulb. As soon as it turns on, you get it, you know where you need to be,' Harrison said. '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.'

You what!? Bayern's Club World Cup opponent have multiple squads
The new Club World Cup is starting in just a few days. 32 teams from all over the world will compete in the USA for the new golden trophy. In the lead-up to the tournament, one question kept coming up: Will the top teams bring their best squads, or will good players who have had a heavy workload be rested or perhaps even left at home? As it now appears, fans can look forward to seeing all the superstars. It would probably be quite unusual for some clubs to compete with a completely changed squad. But for one club, that's definitely not the case. Bayern's group opponent, Auckland City FC, is completely used to sending entirely different squads to different matches. Excuse me, what!? Advertisement The reasons for the various squads of the New Zealand record champions can be boiled down to two important factors. First, the enormous distances the club has to travel for matches, and second, the incredibly packed schedule. For Auckland City, 'English weeks' (multiple matches per week) are the norm. In addition to the New Zealand league, the club also competes in the national Chatham Cup and the OFC Champions League. 📸 Jeff Brass - 2006 Getty Images The regular league matches aren't really the problem. The top division in New Zealand is split into three different leagues: North, Central, and South. Things get tricky, however, when the Champions League comes around. Advertisement This is where it gets really hairy. In the Oceanian Champions League, alongside teams from Australia, New Zealand, and Papua New Guinea, there are also plenty of clubs from the Pacific islands like New Caledonia, Fiji, or French Polynesia. For the CL opener against AS Pirae, a club from the latter, Auckland had to fly a whopping 4,000 kilometers. 📸 Pool - 2024 Getty Images As if that weren't wild enough, there are often scheduling overlaps, so Auckland might have to play on a faraway island on Wednesday and then be back in action in the domestic league on Friday. That's when the second squad comes into play. Advertisement To prevent the players from being completely overworked all the time, the club sometimes sends one squad to the international matches, while another stays home to fight for the championship. 📸 Phil Walter - 2025 Getty Images And it gets even crazier. The entire competition, both in New Zealand and in the OFC CL, is only semi-professional. Almost all of Auckland City's players have regular jobs alongside their football careers and often have to use their vacation days for the long-distance matches. It's clear, of course, that the club shouldn't pose too much of a hurdle for FC Bayern in the fight for the knockout stage. Still, you can only respect the Auckland City players for everything they endure to compete for titles in the world's most beautiful sideshow. Advertisement And one thing is certain: At a major tournament like the Club World Cup, it was surely crystal clear to the players that no one would be rested and that they would travel with a full squad to experience this moment. After all, they're already used to the long flights. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
