Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever is set to miss her third game in a row due to a right groin injury. This unfortunate setback occurred during a match against the Connecticut Sun on July 15. As the Fever prepare to host the Las Vegas Aces on Thursday, it has been confirmed that Clark does not have a clear timeline for her return.

The Fever provided an update stating that Clark underwent additional medical evaluations earlier this week, confirming that there were no further injuries detected. The organization emphasized that her recovery and rehabilitation are the main priorities for her long-term health and well-being.

Looking back on this season, Clark has faced significant challenges, appearing in only 13 games due to multiple soft-tissue injuries, including a left quad strain and another groin injury. Her absence has left a considerable impact on the team, which has demonstrated improved performance when she is on the court.

Despite her struggles, Clark continues to average 16.5 points, five rebounds, and 8.8 assists per game, ranking second in the league in assists. As the Fever sit in seventh place in the standings, they must balance the need for Clark’s health and the urgency of making a postseason push.
