As a huge fan of Aubrey Plaza, I can’t help but feel for her after hearing about her latest injury.

There’s been a lot of interest among fans as to what transpired with Aubrey Plaza. The actress, recognized for her parts in shows such as Parks and Recreation and The White Lotus, sustained an injury during a WNBA match. Her intriguing appearance at the ABC telecast of the WNBA All-Star game on Saturday, using crutches and wearing a large ice pack on her right knee, fueled even more curiosity.

As a curious gamer, I’ve been wondering lately about Aubrey Plaza and the news of her injury. I couldn’t help but ask myself, “What exactly transpired that led to Aubrey getting hurt?” and “Was this unfortunate incident connected to a WNBA game in any way?” So, let me share with you some clarity on this topic.

How did Aubrey Plaza injure herself?

Aubrey Plaza injured herself by tearing her ACL, or anterior cruciate ligament.

Based on Deadline’s report, Plaza sustained an ACL injury during a knockout game at the Phoenix Mercury practice facility on Saturday night, as announced by play-by-play commentator Ryan Ruocco. This incident occurred before the official WNBA All-Star game, but Plaza still made an appearance at the event despite her injury.

Aubrey Plaza experienced her second ACL injury. She shared information about her previous ACL tear during an interview on the “A Touch More” podcast with Megan Rapinoe and Sue Bird, according to SFGate. The podcast recording took place during the WNBA All-Star game on Saturday, where Plaza joined Rapinoe and Bird as guests.

As a gamer, I once had an adventure with Rapinoe and Bird where I shared an exciting secret. I confessed that long ago, I donned a disguise to join my sister Natalie in a Los Angeles women’s rec league. In a light-hearted moment, I also revealed that I turned into a “villain” when I tried to switch my team from the Pistol Shrimps to the Spice Girls, where Natalie was a beloved member. However, when my attempt to switch teams failed and the Spice Girls declined my membership, I resorted to using a “wig and goggles” disguise to play alongside my sister in secret.

Aubrey Plaza shared that she suffered from tearing her ACL while attempting a take, all while wearing a wig. She described this unfortunate incident as a “nightmare scenario.”

During her interview on A Touch More, Plaza spoke about her passion for basketball and expressed her dream of eventually becoming the owner of a WNBA team.
