Dallas Wings fans will have to wait a little longer to see rookie sensation Azzi Fudd in action again. The No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 WNBA Draft has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Atlanta Dream due to a right knee injury.

The setback comes just days after Fudd made her highly anticipated professional debut on May 9, where she logged 18 minutes off the bench, contributing three points, one rebound, and one assist. Initially listed as probable for the Dream game, she was downgraded to out roughly two hours before tip-off.

It remains unclear when the injury occurred, but according to Dallas Hoops Journal, Fudd participated in the team's shootaround earlier in the day, working on skill drills alongside the Wings' guards during the open media portion. Head coach Jose Fernandez had previously praised Fudd's professionalism regarding her role off the bench, noting the team's strong chemistry and depth.

Fudd joins an elite lineage of No. 1 picks in WNBA history, following in the footsteps of legends like Caitlin Clark (2024), Aliyah Boston (2023), and Sabrina Ionescu (2020). Her development will be crucial for a Wings franchise that has consistently invested in top-tier talent through the draft.

For now, Dallas will look to adjust its rotation as Fudd's status remains day-to-day. Fans will be eagerly watching for updates on when the sharpshooting guard can return to the court and showcase the skills that made her the top selection in this year's draft.
