Breanna Stewart’s status for the playoffs remains in doubt.

The Seattle Storm star has continued to rehab her left foot after suffering the injury on Sept. 7 against the Washington Mystics. After being evaluated by the Storm medical staff, the team announced that Stewart would miss the final two regular-season games.

Without Stewart, the Los Angeles Sparks dealt the Storm one of their worst losses of the season in their second-to-last game.

Stewart has yet to practice with the team, which plays Sunday in the second round of the WNBA playoffs. It’s likely that she will need to practice at least once before the single-elimination game.

Stewart’s situation is eerily reminiscent of the 2020 season, when she missed the Storm’s final two regular season games with a foot injury. She returned in the semifinals to lead to Seattle to a WNBA championship and win the Finals MVP award.
