Plum (lower leg) will miss the remainder of the 2026 WNBA season, Alexa Philippou of ESPN.com reports Monday.

Plum is still feeling the effects of a lingering lower-leg injury and won't participate in the upcoming FIBA World Cup while also being shut down for the remainder of the WNBA campaign. The star guard is set to become a free agent at the conclusion of the season. In five appearances with the Mercury, she averaged 15.8 points and 2.8 assists in 21.0 minutes per game.
