Indiana Fever to face Chicago Sky without Caitlin Clark, 2 other key injured players
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Indiana Fever will face the rival Chicago Sky on Saturday without Caitlin Clark and two other key players who sustained season-ending injuries in Thursday's loss at Phoenix. Clark has not played since injuring her right groin in the second-to-last game before the All-Star break. Coach Stephanie White still has not provided a timetable for Clark's return. But her continued absence has now been complicated by the additional losses of Sydney Colson and Aari McDonald. Colson tore the anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee during the first quarter Thursday. McDonald broke a bone in her right foot during the same game. The Atlanta Dream selected McDonald with the third pick in the 2021 WNBA draft. She was averaging 9.8 points, 4.7 assists and 1.3 steals since emerging as a key part of the team early this season. Colson was acquired as a free agent in February after spending the last three seasons with Las Vegas. She was averaging 2.4 points and 2.0 assists in 30 games with Indiana.

As Fever face more bad injury news, where does it leave Caitlin Clark and the team's postseason chances?
The Indiana Fever's luck is disintegrating as quickly as it appeared. The organization known for missteps and losses caught a break when it won consecutive WNBA draft lotteries to select center Aliyah Boston and point guard Caitlin Clark as their franchise cornerstones. They capitalized on the opportunity by building a championship-worthy 2025 roster. The three months since training camp feel classically old-school Fever, even if barely any of it can be blamed on the organization itself. Clark has been available less than half the season while dealing with various injury setbacks. Sophie Cunningham missed time. DeWanna Bonner severed ties. And now Aari McDonald and Sydney Colson will miss the rest of the season with injuries sustained in a loss to Phoenix on Thursday. Forget decimating their point guard depth. It completely wipes it out. The immediate question is how to fill the void. Indiana, with its nine available players, will be able to sign a free agent to a hardship contract. But it cannot do so until after its 'rivalry week' game at home against Chicago on Saturday. Options include Zia Cooke and Jaylyn Sherrod, who were both waived recently. Veterans Moriah Jefferson, Shey Peddy and Odyssey Sims are available. That decision is nothing compared to the questions the Indiana front office needs to ask in the coming days. Their realistic championship aspirations — ones that still held even a month ago when they won the Commissioner's Cup title — appear extinguished. They're fifth in the standings, buoyed by former hardship contract signee McDonald's success running the offense in Clark's absence, Colson's veteran title-winning leadership and a defense that came together on a string. Everything is quite suddenly different now. Can they tread water for the final month of the regular season? Is it even worth it to try? Those are two questions few outside of the organization can begin to answer with any sliver of certainty, because there is none around Clark. The Fever have been cagey since preseason on the MVP vote-earner's injuries, as the expansive and vague descriptions notorious in hockey now sweep the WNBA. When Clark went down ahead of the All-Star break with a right groin injury, head coach Stephanie White initially categorized it as 'good news' that she was 'day-to-day.' One week later, the team sent out an update emphasizing a 'priority on her long-term health and well-being.' They set no timetable and no additional details. White reiterated those points again on Monday. It doesn't take a PhD to read the message between the lines. There is no rushing Clark back to chase a 2025 WNBA championship. There will be opportunities in the future for their young core. It's a respectable choice that might not have been made in previous iterations of the Fever. That Clark's injuries are all soft tissue (left quad tightness, left quad strain, left groin injury) presents its own challenge in these questions. 'With the type of injuries that I've dealt with, there's no real … it's not like, six weeks, OK, you're coming back for the Connecticut Sun game on Aug. 30 or whatever,' Clark said on the 'Bird's Eye View with Sue Bird' podcast episode released earlier on Friday. 'It's, 'How do you feel?' And even when I have been back, I don't know how I'm going to feel the next day when I've been playing when you're dealing with these types of injuries.' It's unclear how Clark is progressing. Her tunnel fit for the Aug. 3 game at Seattle was her practice uniform. She began full-court, full-speed running recently, the ABC broadcast reported last week. But still no basketball activities. Time is dwindling. There are 13 games left over a span of 34 days. The margins are tight. The Fever are nearly as close to a No. 4 seed and home-court advantage in the first round as they are to missing the postseason entirely. The Phoenix Mercury (19-11) are in fourth, 2.5 games ahead of the Fever. The Valkyries (14-15) and Sparks (14-15) are tied in eighth at two games behind Indiana. Clark, White and the Indiana front office need to decide if and when it becomes not worth it to bring Clark back into the fold. She'll need at least a few games to ramp up after 13 appearances and none since July 15. And if the Fever fall to the seventh or eighth seed, is it worth it to put her in a physical, high-octane postseason battle against either of the league's two best teams that soon? Maybe it is. Maybe a Clark-led Fever team is confident in its ability to knock out the Minnesota Lynx or New York Liberty in a best-of-three. Their ceiling is high, albeit not as much without McDonald or Colson. But the risk is, too. It's arguably higher now than it was two days ago when Clark had established depth within the Fever's system to rely upon. How much more bad luck do the Fever want to invite?

Caitlin Clark says no timetable for return as Fever lose two more guards for season
The Indiana Fever, who are already without All-Star guard Caitlin Clark, announced Friday they have lost two more guards — Sydney Colson (left ACL tear) and Aari McDonald (broken right foot) — for the remainder of the season. League rules don't allow the Fever to sign a hardship player until after Saturday's game against Chicago, meaning they will have nine players available for that contest. The teams meet at 8 p.m. ET at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Colson and McDonald each suffered injuries during the Fever's loss to the Phoenix Mercury on Thursday, Aug. 7. Colson was injured in the first quarter of the game in Phoenix while trying to track down the basketball near the Fever's bench. McDonald left the game limping in the fourth quarter. Neither player returned. For her part, Clark appeared on Sue's Bird podcast, "Bird's Eye View," on Friday and spoke about the frustrations of her injury-filled season and not having a grip on when she will be able to come back. After winning Rookie of the Year in 2024, Clark has played in 13 of 32 games this season and remains out indefinitely with a right groin injury. 'Obviously, there are really frustrating days and there are days where it's a little bit easier and you're very motivated and you're close to the finish line of getting back," Clark told Bird on the podcast. 'It's not like I have a training camp to build up to play in my first game again. It's like no, you're tossed into game 30 — like, 'Go try to play well.' It's hard, it really is.' Clark is averaging 16.5 points, five rebounds and 8.8 assists, she's shooting just 36.7% from the field, including 27.9% from 3-point range. Notably, she is 2 of 35 from behind the arc on the road. "It's just been so challenging being active, playing four games, and then not," Clark said. "Not feeling the best and then frustrated of how hard I worked in the offseason and all I do is rehab and continue to do this process. "That's been the hardest part, the stop-and-go of everything." Clark shared that she understands how much fans enjoy seeing her play and plans to continue to travel with Indiana Fever regardless of her injury. "You want to play," Clark said, knowing that people bought tickets for her games to get the chance to see a deep 3-pointer or amazing pass. "But I still try and make it memorable. I am going to sign autographs for way longer when I am hurt than when I am not injured." Clark started the season with a left quad injury, then injured her left groin and now the right. She her mom texted her after the most recent setback, who urged her to take the time she needs to heal. "She said, 'You have given so much to the game, take some time for yourself,'" Clark said. Clark also eluded about her career after basketball, joking about becoming a college coach because of the lack of defense played at that level. She then talked about being on the sidelines at games, "coaching the refs." "I should be ref," she joked. "I'd wouldn't miss a call."
