With the 2025 WNBA All-Star break concluded, the Indiana Fever provided an injury status update to star Caitlin Clark entering their Tuesday night matchup against the New York Liberty from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
Clark, who suffered a right groin injury late in the Fever’s July 15 victory over the Connecticut Sun, missed Indiana’s blowout loss against the Liberty last Wednesday and opted out of the entire All-Star weekend to focus on her recovery.

According to head coach Stephanie White, the Fever do not anticipate Clark being made available when they take the floor in Brooklyn on Tuesday.
“I haven’t seen C [Clark] since the game last night, but I think she’s progressing. I think that we’re continuing to address everything that needs to be addressed. She’s going to see some doctors and get some more tests done early in the week.
“I don’t expect her to be available on Tuesday, so we’re just going to continue to take it one day at a time and let her get her evaluation early this week. Once we’ve done that, hopefully we’ll have more of a clear mind of what it looks like,” White said of Clark’s status.
With Clark most likely unavailable for Indiana, the team will need to rely heavily on Kelsey Mitchell and Aliyah Boston to bear the load on offense with impactful contributions off the bench for the time being.
