Indiana Fever vs. Dallas Wings live updates: How to watch, Caitlin Clark injury status
The WNBA regular season continues as the Indiana Fever travel to Texas to take on the Dallas Wings in a Friday, June 27 showdown.
The Fever are aiming to bounce back from an 85-75 loss to the Los Angeles Sparks, a game they played without Caitlin Clark. Clark has been sidelined due to a groin injury and is currently considered day-to-day.
She'll still be out against the Wings. She recently returned from a quad injury that kept her out for five games. In Clark's absence, Kelsey Mitchell led the Fever in scoring Thursday with 20 points, while Aari McDonald, who Indiana signed for the rest of the season after waiving DeWanna Bonner, contributed 14 points off the bench. Unfortunately, their efforts were not enough to secure a win.
