UConn women’s basketball will have just seven players available at Seton Hall Tuesday night.

Azzi Fudd did not travel with the team to South Orange, New Jersey, instead staying in Storrs to undergo testing, according to a team spokesperson.

Fudd appeared to re-aggravate her right knee injury in the Huskies’ win over Georgetown last Sunday, just her second game back. The sophomore guard collided with a Georgetown player and exited the game with about three minutes left in the second quarter. She was ruled out at halftime and sat on the bench with an ice pack over her right knee for the rest of the afternoon.

Head coach Geno Auriemma said postgame that the team doctor was evaluating Fudd and didn’t have an update on her status.

Caroline Ducharme and Ayanna Patterson also both remain out in concussion protocol. This will be the fifth consecutive missed game for Ducharme, who suffered the injury in practice on Jan. 2. Patterson sustained her concussion in a win over Xavier on Jan. 5 and will miss her third game in a row, though she participated in pregame warmups.

Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. on SNY.
