  • This tweak marks her fourth muscle injury of the season, stretching her missed total to 12 games, including 11 of 23 regular-season contests.
  • New York will counter Clark’s absence by reinstating 2024 Finals MVP Jonquel Jones, who is off the injury report after a right ankle issue.
  • The Liberty enter the matchup on a three-game win streak and lead the WNBA with 10.0 made 3-pointers per game at a 35.3% clip.
  • Indiana is 4-6 without Clark this season but captured the Commissioner’s Cup without her, highlighting the Fever’s depth as they vie for Eastern Conference positioning.
