Caitlin Clark injury update: Fever star to get more opinions, tests on groin
White shared the news with reporters on Sunday, July 20 as the team returned to practice following the WNBA All-Star Game, which was held in Indianapolis.
Clark initially suffered the groin injury during the final moments of the game against the Connecticut Sun on July 15. She was voted as a team captain for the All-Star game, but was unable to play, stating, "I have to rest my body."
White doesn't expect Caitlin Clark to be available to play against the New York Liberty for the Fever's next game on Tuesday, July 22.
"She's going to see some doctors and get some more tests around early in the week," White told reporters. "I don't expect her to be available on Tuesday, so we're just going to continue to take it one day at a time and let her get her evaluations early this week and then once we've done that, hopefully we'll have a clear line of what it looks like."
Clark did not practice on Sunday, along with the Fever's other All-Stars Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell.
It's the fourth muscle-related injury for Clark this season. She's missed 11 of the Fever's 23 games this season, including the Commissioner's Cup victory over the first-place Minnesota Lyxn.
Clark's other injuries from this season include her left groin, quad tightness and a quad strain.

Eagles' training camp: Jihaad Campbell gets first-team reps in third practice
First-round pick Jihaad Campbell is already running with the first team in training camp Eagles first-round pick Jihaad Campbell wasn't expected to practice until August following offseason shoulder surgery to repair a torn labrum. Not only is Campbell participating in training camp, but he's also getting first-team reps in just the third session of the summer. Campbell has been listed as 'limited' throughout camp so far, but he's looked far from it. The No. 31 overall pick has participated in team drills and 11-on-11, flashing the athleticism that convinced the Eagles to trade up for his services. With Nakobe Dean on the PUP list and potentially missing time to start the season, Campbell is on pace to start next to All-Pro linebacker Zack Baun in the Week 1 matchup vs. Dallas. 'It was good to see [Jihaad Campbell] out there. Wasn't expecting him out there,' Vic Fangio said. 'The trainers have been telling me all spring that it would be some point in August when he'd be out there. So, I'm learning that our trainers like to under-state and over-achieve so they look good. But, it was good to get him out there.'

Ichiro Suzuki stats: Hall of Fame's first Japanese star won awards, set records
A superstar overseas and for nearly two decades in Major League Baseball, Ichiro Suzuki's 2025 election to the Baseball Hall of Fame makes him the first Japanese-born player to be enshrined in Cooperstown. Suzuki's success in America was far from guaranteed when he became the first Japanese position player to join MLB, signing with the Seattle Mariners for the 2001 season. Suzuki hit .350 that year with 56 steals to win American League MVP and Rookie of the Year awards, helping the Mariners tie the MLB record with 116 wins in the regular season. In each of his first 10 seasons in MLB, Suzuki was named an All-Star, won a Gold Glove award and topped 200 hits. He wound up playing 19 MLB seasons – until the age of 45 – and racked up 3,089 hits, spending time with the New York Yankees and Miami Marlins late in his career, ultimately finishing his career back in Seattle. Suzuki's immediate success paved the way for Japanese position players to make the leap across the Pacific and he should also get some Japanese company in Cooperstown down the road, with Shohei Ohtani already winning three MVP awards since coming to America for the 2018 season. Here's a look at the new Hall of Famer's career accomplishments: Ichiro Suzuki career stats Ichiro Suzuki highlights Ichiro Suzuki awards MLB Japan How old is Ichiro Suzuki?
