In a major development, Destiny Littleton, the California state freshman, sophomore, and junior player of the year in girls basketball at Bishop's, has a fracture in her right foot.
Littleton, a dominant playmaker and guard at Bishop's the past three years, attended the four-way football scrimmage Fri., Aug. 19, among La Jolla High, Sweetwater, and Calvary Murrieta schools, held at The Bishop's School. She was wearing a Velcro boot on her right leg.
Coach Marlon Wells, alongside her at the scrimmage, said, "It happened in June. But she had a great summer of basketball." She played on the foot, which has a "chip", on Wells' travel team throughout summer competition, which often takes them to showcases across the country.
The impact of the injury could affect the Lady Knights' upcoming 2016-17 season, as well as Littleton's future as a highly desired prospect for women's college basketball.
