For the second time this WNBA season, Caitlin Clark will miss time due to injury.

In late May, the Indiana Fever announced that Clark had a quad strain. The team went 2-3 in the five games without her. Once she returned to the hardwood on June 14 to face the New York Liberty, she dropped 32 points in a 102-88 win.

Unfortunately, Clark hasn't been herself over the past three games. She has made just one attempt from beyond the arc during that stretch while also committing 22 turnovers. On Tuesday night, the former No. 1 pick recorded more turnovers (8) than points (6) in a game for the first time in her career.

Well, we might know why Clark has been in a slump. It turns out she's not at full strength right.

Moments ago, the Fever ruled out Clark for Thursday night's game against the Los Angeles Sparks because of a hamstring injury.

The severity of Clark's injury is unknown at this time. Hopefully, she doesn't miss an extended period of time.

When Clark missed time earlier this season she admit that it wasn't easy working her way back to form.

"I think the hardest part is when you begin to feel really good, and then it's just the process of working yourself back into actually getting up and down and getting out there with my teammates. And obviously that can be a little difficult, at the same time, when they're prepping for their games that I'm not going to be available in."

Clark is averaging 18.2 points and 8.9 assists per game. We're wishing her all the best in her recovery.
