Fever Climb to Sixth as Clark’s Return Remains Uncertain

Coach Stephanie White is holding out the star guard until she proves full‑speed readiness in live practices.

Overview

  • Indiana beat Seattle 95-75 to improve to 20-18 and sixth in the standings, sweeping the season series and winning the glass 42-21 as Aliyah Boston scored 27 with Odyssey Sims at 22 and Kelsey Mitchell at 21.
  • Caitlin Clark missed her 16th straight game with a right groin injury and ankle bone bruise and has yet to participate in a full-speed team practice.
  • White emphasized a cautious, no-regression plan, saying Clark must complete multiple live practices and show endurance and contact readiness before any game return.
  • Boston surpassed 1,000 career rebounds, becoming the fastest Fever player to reach the mark while taking on an expanded role during Clark’s absence.
  • Indiana has not clinched a postseason spot with six games remaining, and a season of injuries and roster churn has fueled renewed calls, including from Candace Parker, to expand WNBA roster sizes.
