All signs are pointing toward Phoenix Mercury guard Diana Taurasi making her sixth Olympic appearance later this month after an injury scare sidelined her for three games with a lower left leg ailment.
Taurasi came back against the Connecticut Sun on July 14, scoring six points and grabbing six rebounds in 25 minutes in a 96-69 road defeat.
Closing out the season's first half before the All-Star Game and the Olympic break, Taurasi had 18 points and five assists in 28 minutes in a 96-87 win over the Washington Mystics on Tuesday.
The 42-year-old Taurasi is averaging 16.1 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 20 games this season.
Taurasi and her Olympic teammates start their journey to a possible eighth consecutive gold medal when the group play starts July 29 against Japan. Team USA will then take on Belgium on Aug. 1 and Germany on Aug. 4.
