During the Indiana Fever's game against the Connecticut Sun on Monday night, Caitlin Clark suffered an injury to her lower left leg. The incident occurred midway through the second quarter when Clark collided with a pick and fell to the ground, clutching her lower leg in pain.
Following the collision, play was halted as Clark struggled to get up and was visibly in discomfort. She was then assisted to the team's bench before being escorted to the locker room for further evaluation. Clark later returned to the bench but did not re-enter the game.
Prior to her injury, Clark had contributed eight points on 2-of-8 shooting, including one 3-pointer. She also secured two rebounds but had not recorded any assists before exiting the game.
This unfortunate incident raises concerns about Clark's health and availability for future games. The No. 1 pick from Iowa has been a key player for the Indiana Fever, and her absence could impact the team's performance moving forward.
