Overview

  • A sellout of 19,156 at Boston’s TD Garden underscored the WNBA’s trend of shifting games to larger arenas to meet demand for Caitlin Clark, as the Fever edged the Sun 85-77.
  • Clark posted 14 points, eight rebounds and seven assists despite shooting 4-for-14 overall and 1-for-7 from three-point range.
  • With 39.6 seconds left, she recoiled from a non-contact groin flare-up that forced her out and added to the nine regular-season games she’s missed with quad and groin issues.
  • Coach Stephanie White confirmed Clark “felt a little something in her groin” and said she will receive further evaluation.
  • Her participation in Wednesday’s game in Brooklyn and her roles as All-Star Game captain and 3-point contest entrant are now uncertain.
