Caitlin Clark Out for Sunday’s Game at Las Vegas

The Fever are treating her back injury cautiously, targeting one of the July 8–9 road games for a possible return.

Overview

  • Clark aggravated a lingering back issue during the June 24 game against the Phoenix Mercury and will not play Sunday, July 5, at the Las Vegas Aces.
  • She returned to team practice and said she feels much better while the Fever list her day-to-day and aim for a return during the July 8–9 back-to-back on the road.
  • Indiana will adjust its rotation with Tyasha Harris drawing a start and other role players to see expanded minutes after the Fever won both games Clark missed earlier this season.
  • Las Vegas also faces uncertainty because A'ja Wilson is listed as questionable and day-to-day, which means both teams could be missing major stars for the nationally televised 7 p.m. ET ESPN game.
  • Clark’s recurring injuries and her limited 2025 season have intensified scrutiny of her management and recovery plan, and her short-term status will shape Indiana’s approach for the coming road trip.
