Overview

  • Clark has been out since May 24 with a left quadriceps strain and missed the Fever’s last five games.
  • Head coach Stephanie White said Clark logged limited reps in recent practice as she ramps up under medical supervision.
  • Indiana has gone 2-3 without Clark, slipping from its early-season form and struggling on both ends of the court.
  • Nationally televised WNBA viewership is down 55 percent since her injury and Fever games have lost 53 percent of their audience.
  • Clark has emphasized she won’t return until fully healed, and the team expects her back in the lineup soon.
