Georgia Amoore has offered fans hope she could soon return to action with a major update on her recovery from a season-ending injury. The 24-year-old had the worst possible start to her Washington Mystics rookie year when she suffered an ACL tear during a training session in late April and was ruled out for the rest of the season.

Amoore is in the early stages of recovery after undergoing successful surgery and admits she’s already seeing signs of improvement. On Monday, she confirmed on Instagram that she can do physical activities, proving her recovery is going well.

The former Kentucky Wildcats star showed a clip of her journey, titling the video with the caption:

“Guys, I can actually run, skip, jump now.”

In her previous Instagram story, she turned heads with several pictures, including one of her stretching her legs at a coffee shop, which received a lot of reactions.

She went on to remind fans, saying:

“It’s been four months post-surgery. Can a girl show a little bit of movement and free will?”

It appears to suggest that Amoore’s recovery is coming along well, but it remains to be seen whether she will return to full fitness. There is no fixed return date; however, it is expected that the rookie hotshot will return sometime during next season.

Amoore has also forged a good rapport in the locker room despite spending most of the season on the sideline. She was selected No. 6 in the 2025 WNBA draft by the Mystics, along with other stellar rookies like Iriafen and Sonia Citron, who are starting to produce impressive performances to prove their credentials in the WNBA.
