The Indiana Fever has had a tough season, given their star player, Caitlin Clark’s constant injuries. After a stellar rookie season, which included a Rookie of the Year nod and an All-WNBA first team appearance, Clark\u2019s sophomore season faced a serious downturn as she spent most of the regular season on the sidelines. <\/p>\n

Due to multiple back-to-back injuries, Clark was limited to playing 13 games this season, an all-time personal low. Needless to say, this severely limited the speed and margin of the Fever\u2019s success during the season and doesn\u2019t bode well for the playoffs as well.<\/p>\n

The Fever guard was officially ruled out of playing this season following a devastating fourth injury. Clark confirmed the same on September 5<\/a>. As per Sporting News, she finished this season with an average of 16.5 points, 8.8 assists, 5.0 rebounds, and 5.1 turnovers.<\/p>\n \u201cI had hoped to share a better update, but I will not be returning to play this season. I spent hours in the gym every day with the singular goal of getting back out there, disappointed isn\u2019t a big enough word to describe how I am feeling. I want to thank everyone who had my back through all the uncertainty,” Clark posted on her social media.<\/p>\n {{^usCountry}}<\/p>\n \u201cThis has been incredibly frustrating, but even in the bad, there is good,\u201d she continued, adding, “The way the fans continued to show up for me, and for the Fever, brought me so much joy and important perspective. I am so proud of how this team has only gotten stronger through adversity this year. Now it\u2019s time to close out the season and claim our spot in the Playoffs.” <\/p>\n {{\/usCountry}}<\/p>\n {{#usCountry}}<\/p>\n \u201cThis has been incredibly frustrating, but even in the bad, there is good,\u201d she continued, adding, “The way the fans continued to show up for me, and for the Fever, brought me so much joy and important perspective.
