The Wings could be without their top draft pick on Tuesday night.

The Dallas Wings could be without their star rookie on Tuesday night, as top draft pick Azzi Fudd has been listed as "probable" on the WNBA's injury report due to right knee soreness. This development comes just days after Fudd made her highly anticipated professional debut.

The Wings are set to face the Atlanta Dream at 8:00 p.m. EST, looking to build momentum from their season-opening victory over the Indiana Fever. That game was a nail-biter, with the Fever surging late before Alanna Smith's six-point fourth quarter and a critical turnover by Kelsey Mitchell sealed the 85-82 win for Dallas.

For Fudd, Saturday's opener was more than just a season start—it marked her official WNBA debut after being selected first overall in the 2026 draft following a standout career at UConn. The 23-year-old guard played just over 17 minutes, connecting on one three-pointer while adding a steal and an offensive rebound. While her stat line of three points may not have wowed fans, her potential remains immense.

Now, with her knee listed as a concern, the Wings' coaching staff will be monitoring the situation closely ahead of tip-off. For a team that relies on fresh talent and depth, having their top pick available—even at less than 100%—could be a difference-maker against a hungry Atlanta squad.

Whether Fudd suits up or not, Tuesday night's matchup promises to be a test of Dallas's early-season resilience. Fans will want to keep an eye on the injury report as game time approaches.
