Caitlin Clark will be sidelined for at least two weeks due to a left quad strain, emphasizing the Fever's commitment to her long-term health. Coach Stephanie White noted the importance of not pushing her too quickly into games, highlighting concern for potential lingering issues. Clark's injury comes after a preseason leg issue, though a connection remains uncertain. Maintaining transparency about her health is crucial, as White mentioned. Clark, the reigning Rookie of the Year, has been impressive this season, averaging 19 points, 9.3 assists, and 6 rebounds, but her return will be cautiously monitored.
"There's so many things when you think about Caitlin and her not wanting to miss games. Obviously, she's a competitor and wants to play."
"But for me, it's maintaining perspective. It's making sure that we address this in a way that doesn't affect [the] long term."
