The Indiana Fever’s celebrated star, Caitlin Clark, has officially been ruled out for the remainder of the 2025 WNBA season after aggravating a right groin injury sustained on July 15 in a win over the Connecticut Sun. Despite intensive rehabilitation efforts, the season’s clock left no room for a safe return. She broke the news herself on her Twitter and Instagram accounts.
Clark's season began with promise as she was among the league leaders in assists and had a few sensational moments shooting logo threes that she has become known for. As our own ProFootballDoc says "injuries beget injuries" and she was never able to re-establish a healthy timeline from her initial quadriceps strain, the first major injury of her career.
Late May / Early June – Missed time due to a left quadriceps strain, marking the first absence of her collegiate and WNBA career.
Late June – Returned to play after recovering from the quad strain, only to suffer a left groin strain, resulting in another brief absence. As reported by Sports Injury Central, this was her second injury of the season.
July 8 – Made a comeback, appearing in a game with a modest stat line, but underlying issues remained.
July 15 – In the final moments of the game against Connecticut, Clark sustained a right groin injury, prompting immediate removal from play and marking the beginning of her extended sideline stretch.
August – As she worked through recovery, Clark suffered a bone bruise in her left ankle, further complicating her rehabilitation timeline.
Despite the interruptions, Clark averaged 16.5 points, 8.8 assists, and 5.0 rebounds in just 13 games. Now, she and the Indiana Fever will look ahead to 2026.
