LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles Sparks guard Kelsey Plum is out indefinitely with a lower left leg injury.

The team said Wednesday that she'll be reevaluated in four weeks, in which she'll miss at least the next 10 games.

Plum missed three games with a right ankle sprain she sustained in practice earlier this season.

She is second in the WNBA in scoring with 23.9 points per game and sixth in the league in assists with 6.4 per game.

The Sparks (8-8) are 1-3 without Plum in the lineup.
