Caitlin Clark is one of the faces of women’s basketball.<\/p>\n
But this time of year, she’s nowhere to be seen as the popular Unrivaled 3-on-3 league goes through its season.<\/p>\n
Clark, the Indiana Fever star in the WNBA who was a collegiate legend at Iowa, isn’t playing in Unrivaled. Most of the WNBA’s top players are, but Clark sits this one out, at least this winter.<\/p>\n
Is Caitlin Clark still playing basketball?<\/p>\n
Yes, Caitlin Clark is still playing basketball, just not in the Unrivaled 3-on-3 league.<\/p>\n
When the new WNBA season arrives, Clark will still be a member of the Indiana Fever. It’ll be her third season in the WNBA after being the No. 1 overall pick out of the University of Iowa.<\/p>\n
Why isn’t Caitlin Clark playing in Unrivaled?<\/p>\n
The short answer here is injuries.<\/p>\n
Clark struggled with health issues<\/a> throughout her second season in the WNBA.<\/p>\n That included a nagging groin injury that never really went away, and so Clark wasn’t taking any chances with her health for the offseason league.<\/p>\n Obviously, she’d be a lot of fun to watch in a wide open, 3-on-3 setting, but if it’s going to happen for Clark and Unrivaled, it’ll have to be down the road.<\/p>\n For now, she’s hoping to be healthy for the WNBA season and for Team USA’s action in the 2026 FIBA Women’s World Cup. Those are her priorities<\/a>.<\/p>\n
