The Indiana Fever will lock horns against New York Liberty on Saturday, June 14th at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse. All eyes would be on star Caitlin Clark, will she feature against New York Liberty or not.
Will Caitlin Clark play against New York Liberty?
There are growing concerns regarding the availability status of Caitlin Clark ahead of the highly anticipated clash against the New York Liberty. Clark has been suffering with a quad injury. She was supposed to miss two weeks of action but still hasn't returned to action.
In her absence, the Indiana Fever have a 2-3 record. With the upcoming match against the defending champions, the Indiana Fever will desperately need Caitlin Clark to return to action.
Caitlin Clark isn't the only player sidelined as shooting guard Sophie Cunningham has missed the same amount of time as Clark. Cunningham re-aggravated an ankle injury that she sustained in the Fever's final preseason game.
Following Thursday's practice, head coach Stephanie White provided with a major update on two key players.
I mean, we limited their reps but really tried to get them up and down the floor a little bit, start to try to get into game rhythm, game speed, game pace, White said via Chloe Peterson on X.
Timing [is] a little bit off, rhythm a little bit off. But continuing to try to work them in as much as we could.
The Indiana Fever are currently seventh in the standings with a 4-5 record. They are missing their key player Clark, who started the 2025 WNBA season while averaging 19 points, 6.0 rebounds and 9.3 assists.
The team is optimistic that either one of the two stars would return to the lineup ahead of their clash against the defending champions.
