Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark will miss at least two weeks because of a strain in her left quadriceps. The team confirmed on Monday that Clark experienced discomfort following a game against the New York Liberty on Saturday. Soon after that contest, she underwent an MRI which revealed the muscle injury, although the severity remains undetermined. Coach Stephanie White noted that the precise timing of the injury is unclear, as Clark mentioned leg pain shortly after the recent loss. She did not participate in the practice session held on Monday, and it is uncertain whether she will accompany the team during upcoming travel.
The organization stated that additional details will be shared after further evaluations. Clark holds a significant role in the team’s performance, and her temporary absence requires adjustments in the lineup. Support from fans and teammates is strong as all hope for a steady recovery and Clark’s return to the court at full strength, allowing the Fever to remain competitive in forthcoming matches.
