Former UConn women’s basketball star Katie Lou Samuelson will miss the 2025 WNBA season after suffering a torn ACL.

Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman each drilled two-run homers as the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the host Miami Marlins 7-4 on Monday night in the opener of a three-game series.

Last season, Samuelson signed with the Indiana Fever but struggled to make an impact. She averaged just 4.3 points on 33.0 percent shooting and eventually lost her spot in the starting lineup. She and the team agreed to buyout her contract, which opened the door for her return to the Storm.
