Kennedy Burke ready for Liberty return after ‘tough’ injury absence

LOS ANGELES – Kennedy Burke settled into her couch and flipped on the TV on Friday night to watch the Liberty play the Wings in Dallas.

Burke wanted to be there battling alongside her teammates, but a pesky low-grade calf strain prevented her from making the trip.

“That was tough,” Burke told The Post. “I was like, ‘This is so weird.’ But it is what it is, and I’m just ready to get out there.”

Burke had been thriving in her expanded role this season when she left the Liberty’s July 26 game due to cramping that turned out to be more serious than initially believed.
