It’s still too soon for Kahleah Copper to talk about the Sky’s Game 5 loss to the Sun in the WNBA semifinals.
That was her message to some of her U.S. teammates when they arrived in Australia for the FIBA World Cup and they told her they thought it would be the Sky hoisting another championship trophy. Not wanting to talk about her team’s abrupt playoff exit is just fine under current circumstances. Right now, Copper needs to occupy her mind with another goal — winning gold.
