There was no immediate word on the extent of her injuries. She appeared to be grabbing at her left wrist after the fall --- she fell forward off the unicycle onto the court --- and was helped off the floor by wheelchair. Red Panda, whose name is Rong Niu, is a Chinese American woman who comes from a family of performing acrobats. Her act is composed of her riding on her custom-built unicycle, which stretches about 8 feet above the court, and balancing custom-made bowls on her lower leg before flipping them atop her head. She has performed at countless basketball games, including Game 5 of the NBA Finals last month in Oklahoma City. ___ AP WNBA: https://apnews.com/hub/wnba-basketball
