Overview

  • Clark expects to play Wednesday against the Golden State Valkyries after missing five games with a left groin injury
  • She participated in a live 5-on-5 scrimmage Monday at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, her first such session since sustaining the injury on June 26
  • Head coach Stephanie White has indicated a likely restriction on Clark’s court time and may hold her out of an additional contest if needed
  • This will be Clark’s second extended absence of the season, having already missed five games with a quadriceps strain earlier in her rookie campaign
  • Indiana went 3-2 and captured the WNBA Commissioner’s Cup without Clark, underscoring the team’s depth ahead of her return
