Minnesota Lynx rookie Emma Cechova will have an MRI on her right knee on Friday, The Athletic reported.

The 21-year-old center was injured in a third-quarter collision with Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers in Minnesota's 90-86 win Thursday night in Arlington, Texas.

Medical staff rushed to check on Cechova, who grabbed her knee in pain before being helped to the locker room.

The Czech Republic native finished the game with two points and two rebounds in 11 minutes.

She is averaging 8.3 points and 3.7 rebounds in 17.3 minutes off the bench through three games this season.
