The Indiana Fever opened the season 2–2 through their first four games with sophomore guard Caitlin Clark on the floor.

However, after suffering a left quad injury against the New York Liberty over two weeks ago, Clark has remained sidelined. In her absence, the Fever have gone 2–3, entering Saturday’s rematch against New York with a 4–5 record.

The Liberty, not only the defending WNBA champions but also undefeated this season at 9–0, present another major test for Indiana. But ahead of the matchup, the Fever announced major news regarding Clark’s injury status.

Head coach Stephanie White revealed that Clark has officially been cleared to return and will be active for Saturday’s game against the Liberty — marking her highly anticipated return to the court.

"she's back," Fever posted. "Caitlin Clark is ready to play tomorrow against New York."

"Yes!!! Let's Go Fever!!!" A fan shared.

Another fan posted, "BABY GOAT IS BACK LFG."

Someone else added, "The game just got a lot harder for New York."

One more fan commented, "We are so back, Let’s go CC and Fever."

The matchup will take place at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, setting the stage for what’s likely to be a packed house — less than 24 hours after the Indiana Pacers host Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Friday night.

This season, Clark is averaging 19.0 points, 9.3 assists, and 6.0 rebounds per game. In her most recent outing — also against the Liberty — she recorded 18 points, 10 assists, and five rebounds in a tightly contested game that went down to the wire, with the Fever narrowly falling 90–88.
