Caitlin Clark misses the rest of the 2025 season due to injury<\/h2>\n\nIndiana Fever star Caitlin Clark will not play anymore in the 2025 WNBA season due to an injury, as announced by the player herself on Thursday.\n\nClark, the No. 1 pick in the 2024 draft, was only able to participate in 13 games this season and hasn’t played since July 15, when she suffered a right groin injury in the final minute of the Fever’s victory against the Connecticut Sun.\n\n\n
\n\n

I was hoping to share better news, but I will not be playing again this season. I spent hours in the gym every day with the sole goal of getting back on the court, disappointment is not enough to describe how I feel.<\/p>\n\nCaitlin Clark<\/cite>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\nBefore this injury, Clark had already been out of the courts this season due to problems in the left quadriceps and the left groin. He also suffered a bone contusion in his left ankle during a training session in August.\n\n\n

\n\n

I want to thank everyone who supported me throughout all the uncertainty. This has been incredibly frustrating, but even in the bad, there are good things. The way the fans continued to support me, and the Fever, gave me a lot of joy and an important perspective. I am very proud of how this team has strengthened through adversity this year. Now it’s time to close out the season and claim our place in the playoffs.<\/p>\n\nCaitlin Clark<\/cite>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\nIndiana coach Stephanie White indicated that the team wanted to assess the path forward for Clark and that they planned to meet after Thursday’s practice to make a decision.\n\nWhite had hoped Clark could return before the end of the regular season, but she was unable to fully rejoin practice before the Fever’s final regular season game on Tuesday, and with the team’s playoff situation still uncertain.\n\nClark did 5-on-0 drills earlier in the week, but hasn’t participated in much contact work, according to White. The Fever have always prioritized Clark’s long-term well-being.\n\nIn 2025, the guard averaged 16.5 points, 8.8 assists, and 5.0 rebounds, and did not play more than five consecutive games during the summer.\n\nClark had never missed a game in her college career or in her first year in the WNBA. However, her second season was marked by her absence, as she was unable to follow up on her outstanding rookie campaign, in which she was included in the WNBA first team, finished fourth in the MVP voting, and contributed to the enormous growth of the league’s popularity.\n\nThe Fever have lost five players to injury this season: Clark, as well as guards Aari McDonald (foot), Sydney Colson (knee) and Sophie Cunningham (knee), as well as forward Chloe Bibby (knee), who was ruled out on Thursday.\n\nIndiana is still competing with Golden State, Seattle, and Los Angeles for one of the three remaining playoff spots.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
