As the WNBA enters a crucial stretch of the season, several teams remain firmly in the playoff hunt — including the Indiana Fever. Today’s matchup presents a major challenge, as they visit Seattle to take on the Storm in what promises to be a tough test, especially given Caitlin Clark’s current situation.
One of the league’s brightest stars has missed the last six games for her team — including the most recent matchup against the Dallas Wings — making her one of the most significant absences for Stephanie White’s squad.
With that said, the question on everyone’s mind is: will the former Hawkeyes star be available for her team as they take on the Storm this afternoon? According to the latest reports, Clark once again will be sidelined, watching her teammates from the bench.
“Caitlin Clark has been ruled out of Sunday’s game in Seattle due to her groin injury. This will be Clark’s 7th straight game missed,” revealed the reporter Angela Moryan.

The Fever will need to secure a win today at 3 PM ET, as they visit the Storm, in order to stay within striking distance of the Liberty and the Dream in the Eastern Conference standings.

What injury is affecting Caitlin Clark?
Caitlin Clark, the star guard for the Indiana Fever, is currently sidelined with a right groin injury. This marks her third different soft tissue injury this season, which has limited her to just 13 games.
The team announced that after further medical evaluations, no additional damage was discovered, and her recovery is a priority for the long-term. There is no official timetable for her return, and she has been described as having a weird injury that is not always painful but requires caution to prevent setbacks.
