Atlanta Dream center Brionna Jones has had right knee surgery, leaving her status uncertain for the start of the WNBA season.

Jones, a four-time All-Star, recently re-signed with Atlanta and was expected to join newly acquired forward Angel Reese to give the Dream an imposing front line.

The Dream announced Monday that Jones had the surgery at Atlanta’s Emory Hospital. The team said a timeline for Jones’ return would be announced later.
