Atlanta Dream guard Danielle Robinson underwent a successful left knee arthroscopy Wednesday and is anticipated to return prior to the WNBA All-Star break in July, the team announced Thursday.
Robinson, a three-time WNBA All-Star and three-time all-defensive pick, suffered the injury in the first half of the Dream’s season-opener on May 20. The former Oklahoma Sooners standout was traded to Atlanta in the offseason, a transaction that also sent Australian Kristy Wallace to Indiana.
Robinson led the league in assists in 2013 and was an All-WNBA second team selection in 2014, overall averaging 9.1 points and 4.2 assists per game throughout her 12-year career.
“Danielle’s skill set, competitiveness, and basketball IQ will prove her to be a great addition to our team,” Dream general manager Dan Padover said in a statement at the time of the trade. “We know she will continue to bring the same energy to the floor that she has brought throughout her entire professional career.”
