A couple players missing at today's UConn practice

The first media availability of the women's basketball season (not counting the American Athletic Conference media day) wrapped up not that long ago and the Huskies were without All-American forward Gabby Williams and transfer Batouly Camara.

UConn coach Geno Auriemma said Williams is dealing with migraine headaches. This was the second practice in a row she missed but he thinks Williams could return tomorrow or Sunday (Saturday is an off day). Camara had a cast on her right leg as she is dealing with what has been diagnosed as a knee sprain and bone bruise. The timetable for her return is a less certain but sounds like she could be iffy for both exhibitions.

"She just came in one day, bumped into somebody, caught an elbow or something but came to practice the next day and everything seemed to be fine," Auriemma said of Williams. "Towards the end of practice she said I don't feel good. We thought it might be a concussion but she went through the whole thing and it wasn't.

"Monday or Tuesday, we were doing a drill and she (Camara) landed on somebody and they said it was a sprain, a bone bruise and maybe out a week or two. They will know more when all the swelling goes down."
