The Fever have done their best to succeed this season without Caitlin Clark. But it is hard to ignore her absence on the court.
Clark has battled through a handful of injuries during the 2025 WNBA season. It is something she is not used to, even going back to her days at Iowa.
First, Clark missed just over two weeks with a quad injury starting at the end of May. Clark ended up missing the Fever's matchup against the Lynx in the Commissioner's Cup as a result.
She then missed some time with a left groin injury that she suffered shortly after returning. When she finally returned, the Fever got blown out by the Valkyries.

Finally, Clark appeared to injure her right groin during the final minutes of Indiana's win against Connecticut , which took place at TD Garden in Boston.
In total, Clark has missed 11 games this season when counting the Commissioner's Cup.
Despite Clark's injuries, Indiana is in a solid position at 12-11 going into the All-Star Break. But the Fever will need to continue stacking wins, with or without Clark, to jockey for playoff position.
Next up for the Fever is another road trip to New York to play the Liberty on Tuesday night.
