The Los Angeles Sparks will be going up against Las Vegas Aces on Friday, May 30th at the Michelob ULTRA in Las Vegas, Nevada. All eyes would be on star player Rickea Jackson, whether she starts against Las Vegas Aces or not.
Will Rickea Jackson start against Las Vegas Aces?
According to the team’s injury report, Rickea Jackson will be missing the Friday’s clash against the Las Vegas Aces as she is ruled out due to personal reasons. Not juts this, she didn’t even travel with the team.
Jackson featured in the LA Sparks previous encounter which they lost 88-82 to the Atlanta Dream. That game marked her return on the court after missing multiple games due to a concussion protocol. Having missed games and limited minutes off the bench, Rickea Jackson looked rusty in the clash against the Dream.
In the 12 minutes that she played, Rickea Jackson went scoreless as she missed all three of her field goal attempts. Jackson had just one rebound and one turnover as she finished the match with a plus-minus of -12.
The Los Angeles Sparks have not had the start to the season that they were hoping for. Despite adding Kelsey Plum to the roster in the offseason, who has performed strongly to start the season, the team has struggles to convert strong individual performances into wins. Currently, the Los Angeles Sparks are sitting sixth in the Western Conference with a 2-4 record.
Rickea Jackson’s limited time on the court and her availability has been one of the factor in the team’s underwhelming start to the season. She has already missed three of the first six games of the ongoing season. Whenever she has stepped foot on the court this season, she has averaged 7.0 points on 31.0% shooting.
