Aliyah Boston, Tyasha Harris, and Lexie Hull are sidelined with minor injuries, while Damiris Dantas is absent due to visa issues for Saturday's game in New York.
Boston and Harris would be available if it were a regular-season game, and coach Stephanie White aims to give new and young players more minutes in their absence.
