The Indiana Fever have been playing without Caitlin Clark for several games this season, leaning on Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell.

Indiana headed into a matchup against the Minnesota Lynx with Clark sidelined for her third straight game and eighth overall game of the season.

Clark is currently dealing with a groin injury that previously held her out of the Fever's lineup for matchups against the Dallas Wings and the Los Angeles Sparks.

Before the Fever's matchup against the Lynx, Indiana coach Stephanie White shared an update on Clark.

White revealed that Clark is making progress in her recovery, which is great news for the Fever, who are looking to make a postseason push in the standings ahead of the All-Star break.

"She's making progress," White said. "Making progress and feeling good are two different things, and we want to make sure that she feels good."
