TULSA, Okla. - Tulsa Shock guard Skylar Diggins will miss tonight's game in Seattle due to a knee sprain she suffered in Sunday night's game versus the Storm at the BOK Center.
Diggins, the 2014 WNBA Most Improved Player of the Year award recipient, left the game with 44 seconds remaining on the clock and did not return.
