UConn is heading into its next game in the NCAA tournament Tuesday - but they're not only missing coach Geno Auriemma.

Freshman guard Nika Muhl questionable for Tuesday night's game against Syracuse after she sprained her ankle in the second quarter of Sunday night's 40-point victory.

She was helped off the court into the locker room, and later returned to the sidelines on crutches.

Interim head coach Chris Dailey says Muhl battled injury to her other ankle earlier this year.
