Cardoso has been dealing with a shoulder
injury, but she revealed her desired return date during an
Instagram livestream on Tuesday. Chicago coach Teresa
Weatherspoon later confirmed that Cardoso should be good to go
on June 1, when the Sky visit No. 1 overall pick Caitlin Clark
and the Indiana Fever.
"I'm going to go with what Kamilla says," Weatherspoon said.
"I'm trusting Kamilla."
Cardoso injured her shoulder during the preseason, and the team
said that she would end up missing four to six weeks.
But Cardoso was back at practice on Tuesday, working in a
limited capacity.
"Just super excited for her to be out at practice today,"
Weatherspoon told reporters on Tuesday. "She's one young lady
who's ready to play."
A two-time national champion at South Carolina, the 23-year-old
Cardoso averaged 14.4 points and 9.7 rebounds across 33 games
(32 starts) in her final season with the Gamecocks.
Chicago is off to a 1-1 start this season after going 18-22 in
2023.
