Clark has missed the majority of the season with an injury that's truly derailed her second year in the WNBA, now playing under head coach Stephanie White.

While Clark has rehabbed through an injury, the Fever have fallen back on the contributions of several other stars, such as Aliyah Boston.

Boston recently took to social media, sharing an update on the season.

"Hoopin and vibing," Boston said.

"So proud of you," Clark said.
