INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) \u2014 One of the biggest stories in the sports world Thursday night was the announcement that Caitlin Clark was ruled out for the rest of the season<\/a> due to injury.<\/p>\n

The Indiana Fever guard has not played since suffering a right groin injury back in mid-July in the team\u2019s win over the Connecticut Sun<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Clark shared the news on social media<\/a> Thursday night that she is done for the 2025 season. Part of the quote reads:<\/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.\u201c<\/p>\n

As expected, many athletes in the sports world wrote comments and words of encouragement to Clark upon hearing the news.<\/p>\n

For instance, Los Angeles Lakers guard LeBron James commented<\/a>, \u201cMinor setback for a MAJOR COMEBACK!! Rest up, get healthy and be YOU!\u201d<\/p>\n

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton, who suffered a torn Achilles in Game 7 of the NBA Finals, commented on Clark\u2019s Instagram post with two heart emojis. He recently talked<\/a> about how the two of them have strengthen their friendship as they each recovered from their respective injuries.<\/p>\n

Clark\u2019s Fever teammate, fellow guard Lexie Hull, commented on Clark\u2019s Instagram post<\/a> that \u201c2026 going to be the best season yet.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another one of Clark\u2019s teammates, forward Aliyah Boston, commented, \u201cMiss you big dawgggggggg\u201d and \u201cyou\u2019ll be back.\u201d<\/p>\n

Even sports journalist Christine Brennan, who wrote a book about Clark<\/a> that was released this year, posted the following on X:<\/p>\n

\u201cIn college and the WNBA, Caitlin Clark talked about the responsibility she always felt to play in every game \u2014 even while suffering migraines \u2014 out of respect for fans who traveled for hours and paid top dollar to see her play. One can only imagine how hard this has been for her.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Indiana Fever is back in action on Friday night against the Chicago Sky inside Gainbridge Fieldhouse.<\/p>\n
