She tweeted today that she's ready for basketball season so she may have just tweaked her ankle or something.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - Another summer, another international title for Southeastern Conference freshman of the year A'ja Wilson.

Wilson, who led the United States to the FIBA Americas U18 crown last summer, turned in another stellar performance during America's run to gold at the FIBA U19 World Championships earlier this month.

Wilson set a U.S. record with 30 points against host-country Russia in the championship game, lifting the Americans to a 78-70 victory this Sunday. Wilson was voted the tournament MVP, averaging better than 22 points and eight rebounds over six games.

Not that the event didn't take a toll. Wilson returned in a walking boot to protect a left ankle sprain suffered in the event. Wilson played through it in Russia and does not expect the injury to affect her this season.

She played through most of that tournament with a mild sprain I guess. Took home the gold and and the MVP anyways.
