In Caitlin Clark’s first game back from injury for the Indiana Fever, she delivered an impressive performance that helped hand the New York Liberty their first loss of the season.

Clark, who was sidelined for five games due to a quad strain, shone with 32 points, eight rebounds, and nine assists, tying her career high in the 102-88 victory. This marks Clark’s fifth career game with 30 or more points. Kelsey Mitchell, a key player in the Fever’s offense, also delivered an impressive performance in the crucial win against the Liberty, scoring 22 points. Lexie Hull, a rising star in the team, added 14 points to the team’s success.

Despite the loss, Sabrina Ionescu led the Liberty in scoring with 34 points, while Breanna Stewart contributed 24 points. However, their efforts fell short. The Liberty, which was previously on a nine-game winning streak, unfortunately saw it come to an end at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

Caitlin Clark injury update: Will Fever star play today?

Yes. The Fever announced Clark will play in Indiana’s matchup against the New York Liberty following a five-game absence due to a left quad injury.

Clark is sure she suffered the left quad strain during the Fever’s loss to the Liberty on May 24 — where she recorded a double-double with 18 points and 10 assists — but she can’t pinpoint a specific play that caused her injury. She only knows that it happened early on in the contest.

“Obviously, adrenaline covers up a lot of stuff when you’re in the heat of battle,” Clark said on Thursday. “And after the game, I had some pain, and then we got an MRI, and that kind of gave me the result that I didn’t want to see. But, you know, those types of things don’t lie.”
