Overview

  • Late in the Fever’s 85-77 win at TD Garden, Clark exited with right groin discomfort during her fourth game back from a similar injury.
  • Coach Stephanie White confirmed Clark is undergoing evaluation and offered no immediate update on her status for Wednesday’s matchup against the New York Liberty.
  • Clark’s participation in Friday’s WNBA All-Star 3-point contest and Saturday’s All-Star Game hinges on medical clearance following the latest setback.
  • Indiana has gone 3–2 without Clark this season and captured the Commissioner's Cup, showing the team’s resilience amid her multiple absences.
  • After missing nine games with a left quad strain and left groin issue, Clark’s shooting volatility and the league’s physical defenses have made her health central to the Fever’s title hopes.
