    New York Liberty guard Shoni Schimmel will take the upcoming WNBA season off to deal with "personal issues" and hopes to return next year.

    The Liberty and Schimmel released a joint statement Saturday. Schimmel, who sustained a concussion at the end of last season, missed the start of training camp last week.

    Liberty President Isiah Thomas says Schimmel has "the full support" of the Liberty and looks forward to "continuing to work with Shoni during her time away from the game."

    Schimmel says she's grateful for the chance to attend to some personal issues and rejoin the team next year.
