Here\u2019s a WNBA story via the Associated Press:<\/p>\n

NDIANAPOLIS (AP) \u2014 Caitlin Clark will miss the rest of the Indiana Fever\u2019s season because of a right groin injury.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had hoped to share a better update, but I will not be returning to play this season,\u201d Clark said in a statement. \u201cI 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis has been incredibly frustrating, but even in the bad, there is good. 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clark was injured late in a July 15 game against the Connecticut Sun, and later sustained a bone bruise. The former Iowa star averaged 16.5 points, 8.8 assists and 5.0 rebounds in 13 games in her second season in the WNBA.<\/p>\n

\u201cCaitlin has worked so hard throughout this time, doing everything possible to recover and return to the court but, ultimately, time is not on our side,\u201d Fever COO and GM Amber Cox said in a statement. \u201dWhile we will continue working with Caitlin and provide her with every resource we have available, there is not enough time left in our season for her to safely return, and her long-term health and well-being remains our top priority. We are looking forward to having her back at full strength to start the 2026 season.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 2024 Rookie of the Year had been trying to get back to help her team reach the postseason for a second straight year. She participated in full-court drills without defense during a shootaround before the Fever faced the Phoenix Mercury on Tuesday night. Coach Stephanie White said Thursday at practice that Clark hasn\u2019t done much contact work yet.<\/p>\n

Indiana is currently in eighth place in the standings, 1 1\/2 games in front of Los Angeles with three games to play.<\/p>\n

It has been a rough season for Clark, who also dealt with injuries to her left quad and left groin. This was the first time she\u2019s had injury issues. She never missed a game in her collegiate career at Iowa or her first year in the WNBA.<\/p>\n

The Fever have lost five players for the season with injuries now including Clark. Fellow guards Sydney Colson (knee), Aari McDonald (foot) Sophie Cunningham (knee) and forward Chloe Bibby (knee) are also out.<\/p>\n

Clark has helped women\u2019s basketball grow in both college and the WNBA. The league had record attendance this season even with Clark missing most of the season.<\/p>\n
