'Timing A Little Bit Off, Rhythm A Little Bit Off': Caitlin Clark Injury Get Valuable Update From Fever HC Stephanie White

Among the sidelined Clark is Sophie Cunningham, who is out due to her ankle injury during the preseason. She’s also out for two weeks.

The Fever, seeking a deeper run this season, deeply needs Caitlin Clark and Cunningham on Saturday’s game. While others, such as Aliyah Boston and Natasha Howard, showed potential, a full roster is better, especially when facing a team surrounded by superstars like Sabrina Ionescu.

Caitlin Clark’s teammates react to her presence amidst injury

While Caitlin Clark remains out of the court, her teammates continue praising her morale-boosting and coaching talents. In Thursday’s ESPN article by Michael Voepel, Fever’s Aliyah Boston and Lexie Hull shared their experiences with Clark on the sidelines.

“She [Clark] doesn’t like sitting still,” Hull said. “She likes being occupied and having something to do, so the coaches give her things to keep track of. I mean, you see it — she wants to be out there. She’s talking to the refs, she’s still very much involved.”

Meanwhile, Boston had a hilarious response when she play-wrestled with Clark, who was bouncing a small ball over the bench.

“Oh my gosh, she’s like a little kid,” Boston said. “She needs to keep herself entertained… But seriously, she’s always talking, always moving. It keeps everything pretty light. That’s her personality.”

Despite the hindrance of not playing with her teammates in games, Caitlin Clark remains a vital factor, especially with her team undergoing struggles without her on the court.
