Sophie Cunningham Discusses Caitlin Clark's Recovery and Its Impact on the Fever
Caitlin Clark has been sidelined for 13 games due to a groin injury, raising concerns about the Indiana Fever's future.
With three key players out and Caitlin Clark still recuperating from an ongoing groin injury, should the Indiana Fever be concerned about their playoff chances? Sophie Cunningham shares her understanding of fan frustrations regarding Clark’s return to the court.
Cunningham notes that Coach Stephanie White is regularly updating regarding Clark’s “day-to-day” status, emphasizing the slow and careful recovery process. Cunningham remarked, “She doesn’t even know when she’ll be back. Literally, it’s a day-by-day legit type of thing,” on a podcast discussion.
The Fever are facing crucial decisions as Clark has missed 13 consecutive games, having sustained her injury on July 15. Last week, White articulated that their priority remains Clark’s long-term health, stating, “We want to reintegrate her from a strength and conditioning standpoint and then get her back to basketball activities.”
Clark has experienced several injuries throughout the season, leading to her absence from All-Star Weekend, despite hosting the event and being the top vote-getter.
