Caitlin Clark shares major health update on injured back

Caitlin Clark got off to a worrisome start to the season, to the point where there was even trade speculation and "overrated" talk.

The Indiana Fever point guard was dealing with a lingering back injury that limited her mobility and forced her to be on a strict minutes limit.

It's safe to say that's all water under the bridge now, as she's emerged as a legitimate MVP candidate and just dropped 34 points, 12 assists, five boards and three steals in a 111-91 win over the Connecticut Sun.

When asked about her health for the remainder of the season, the Iowa product shared an encouraging update.

Caitlin Clark feels better than ever 

“I feel probably the best I’ve ever felt in my career,” the star point guard said. “It was battle for like the first 20 games for me to really find my confidence again, mostly in my body. Now, I feel like I’m just playing. I’m not thinking.”
