The Seattle Storm says forward/center Ezi Magbegor underwent successful surgery Friday, Sept. 25, to repair her right anterior cruciate ligament.
The club’s update is a follow-up to its earlier announcement that Magbegor tore the right ACL while playing for Australia in a 2026 FIBA Women’s World Cup qualifying final against Italy. The new statement confirms the procedure; it does not change the original injury description or offer a projection about a future return date.
What Seattle confirmed
Seattle identified the procedure as successful surgery to repair the right ACL. The club said updates on Magbegor’s progress and return to play will be made public when available.
That is the full timetable information currently provided by the team. The release does not identify a rehabilitation schedule, set a target date for basketball activities or announce when Magbegor could return to game action.
A source-backed medical follow-up
The new report establishes an important next step in Magbegor’s recovery: the surgery has taken place. It does not support claims about the length of recovery or her availability for a particular future season.
For Storm readers, the responsible update is specific. Magbegor sustained a right ACL injury while representing Australia, Seattle has now confirmed successful repair surgery, and the next verified milestone will come only when Magbegor or the club releases another progress update.
