Indiana coach Stephanie White gave an update on Caitlin Clark’s rehab from injury prior to Sunday’s game at Seattle.
The Indiana Fever are on fire. Winners of five in a row today, the Fever are 8-2 in their past 10 games and are climbing the WNBA standings. They picked up a key 78-74 road win in Seattle on Sunday, which added significance in terms of tiebreaker scenarios with the Storm.
The Fever (17-12) led by 12 in the fourth quarter before the Storm (16-13) went on an 11-0 run to make things snug.
Aliyah Boston picked up her sixth straight double-double with 16 points and 12 rebounds. Kelsey Mitchell struggled mightily from the field, shooting just 3-of-16, but banger a key jump shot late and a layup with under 10 seconds that helped Indiana hold on for the win.
Caitlin Clark missed her seventh straight game with a right groin injury. Fever coach Stephanie White provided an update on Clark’s rehab prior to Sunday’s game: “I still don’t know how far we are. We’re going to take it one step at a time, one day at a time, and go from there.”
Here’s the full box score from Sunday’s game.
