Paige Bueckers off Wings injury report, apparently set for return from 4-game absence
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Dallas Wings rookie Paige Bueckers is no longer listed in the team's injury report, apparently clearing the way for her return from a four-game absence, first with a concussion and then an illness. Bueckers is set to play at the Phoenix Mercury on Wednesday night, a day after going through a full practice. The No. 1 pick in this year's draft missed three games in the WNBA's concussion protocol before sitting out an 81-65 home loss to the undefeated Minnesota Lynx with an unspecified illness. Bueckers last played in a 97-92 loss to the Chicago Sky on May 29. Bueckers is averaging 14.7 points and 6.7 assists in six games for the Wings, who have the league's worst record at 1-9. ___ AP WNBA:

Twins reinstate Byron Buxton from concussion injured list after 11-game absence
SEATTLE (AP) — The Minnesota Twins reinstated center fielder Byron Buxton from the seven-day concussion injured list on Friday before beginning a three-game series in Seattle, two weeks after he collided with shortstop Carlos Correa in pursuit of a shallow fly ball. Buxton missed 11 games after the collision, which also sent Correa into the concussion protocol. Correa only needed the minimum seven-day stay on the injured list and missed five games. To make room for Buxton, outfielder Carson McCusker was sent back to Triple-A St. Paul. Buxton was batting .261 with an .834 OPS and 18 extra-base hits, including 10 homers, before he was hurt. He also had 33 runs, 27 RBIs and eight steals in his first 41 games. ___ AP MLB:
