Fever Coach Stephanie White Gives Major Caitlin Clark Injury Update
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Indiana Fever fans may have gotten their hopes up just a bit over the weekend when superstar guard Caitlin Clark's official injury status was upgraded to game-time decision ahead of the team's matchup against the Dallas Wings on Tuesday. Clark, who's averaging 16.5 points, 8.8 assists, 5.0 rebounds, 1.6 steals, and 31.1 minutes per game this season, has been sidelined for nearly four weeks with a right groin injury that forced her to miss the WNBA All-Star Game on July 19, which was held in front of her hometown fans in Indianapolis. This is the fourth major injury Clark has suffered this season. She's missed 19 of the Fever's 32 games plus the WNBA Commissioners' Cup Final while dealing with a left groin injury and a quadriceps injury, plus she missed some time during the preseason with a hand injury. So when fans saw Clark's status had been updated on the WNBA web site, it was speculated she could be nearing a possible return.

"No return to practice," White told Peterson. "She's been able to get a little bit more in her full-court running with all of her body weight. It's really building up from doing minimal to then building some endurance to do longer periods of time. She's been able to do a bit more on the court in terms of how she moves but not into practice yet."

Indiana (18-14) sits in a fifth-place tie with the Las Vegas Aces, right behind the Minnesota Lynx, New York Liberty, Atlanta Dream, and Phoenix Mercury. With just 12 games left in the regular season, many fans have urged the Fever to consider shutting Clark down for most, if not all of those contests to have her healthy when the postseason starts in mid-september. However, with the recent season-ending injuries to guards Aari McDonald and Sydney Colson, getting Clark back on the court a more pressing matter.
