Griffith out for season

INDIANAPOLIS – Indiana Fever forward Yolanda Griffith has suffered what might be a career-ending tear of her left Achilles tendon.

The Fever said Wednesday that the 39-year-old former All-Star and Olympic gold medalist would miss the rest of the WNBA season, a day after she was injured against Seattle. Griffith said before training camp that this would be her final pro season.

Griffith ranks No. 2 in WNBA history in rebounds and ranks in the league’s all-time top 10 in points, steals, blocks and free throws.
