Coach White Explains Damiris Dantas' Absence: Timpson's Rise and Future Return
The absence of Damiris Dantas in the Indiana Fever's recent games has been explained by head coach Stephanie White. White attributed Dantas' benching to Makayla Timpson's strong performances and the specific matchups they faced. Timpson's versatility on both ends of the court has been a key factor in keeping Dantas out of the rotation. Despite not playing in the game against the Portland Fire, Dantas is expected to return to the lineup in the upcoming games. White emphasized that Dantas will be back in the rotation soon, especially considering the matchups in the team's next few games. Dantas last played against the Seattle Storm, and her absence in recent games is not expected to continue for long.
