Caitlin Clark’s Back Injury Has Her Listed as Probable Against the Sun. Here’s the Full Injury Report.

Caitlin Clark is on the injury report again. That’s become almost routine for the Fever star, who has been listed with a back issue seemingly every few weeks this season. But here’s the thing: she’s played in 22 of Indiana’s 26 games anyway. So when the Fever face the Connecticut Sun on Wednesday night, the smart money is on Clark being out there.

Clark is having another monster year. She’s averaging 20.7 points, 7.8 assists and 3.9 rebounds per game, shooting 42.8 percent from the field and 33.3 percent from three. Not bad for a player who’s been banged up all season. The back issue is real, but it hasn’t kept her from being the engine of Indiana’s offense.

Here’s what we know about Clark’s status for tonight’s game.

Clark’s Status vs. the Sun

The WNBA injury report lists Clark as probable for Wednesday night’s 8 PM EST tip-off. That’s the same designation she’s had for most of the season, and it’s basically never stopped her from playing. The Fever will keep an eye on her before the game, but expecting her to sit at this point would be a surprise.

So to answer the question directly: yes, Caitlin Clark is almost certainly playing tonight.

Fever Injury Report

Indiana has two players on the injury report for Wednesday:

– Caitlin Clark (back): Probable
– Damiris Dantas (left knee): Out

Dantas has been out for a while, so that’s not new. The real story is Clark, who keeps showing up on the list but keeps playing through it.

Sun Injury Report

Connecticut has three players banged up heading into the game:

– Brittney Griner (left knee): Questionable
– Saniya Rivers (left ankle/foot): Questionable
– Aaliyah Edwards (right knee): Out

Griner being questionable is the big one for Connecticut. She’s been a force inside all season, and if she can’t go, that changes the matchup significantly. Rivers is also important as a perimeter defender, and Edwards has been a solid rotational piece when healthy. The Sun might be shorthanded, which could give the Fever an opening.

Either way, expect Clark to be on the court. She’s just built different.
