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.

Phillies' Aaron Nola will make his first minor league rehab start on Thursday
NEW YORK (AP) — Philadelphia pitcher Aaron Nola will make his first injury rehabilitation start Thursday for Triple-A Lehigh Valley at Worcester as he works his way back from a sprained right ankle and fractured rib that have sidelined him since May. Nola threw batting practice on Friday. Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Saturday the 32-year-old right-hander will throw about 60 pitches in the Triple-A game. Nola hurt the ankle during agility drills on May 8. He made a pair of ineffective starts and was placed on the IL effective May 15. Nola threw a bullpen session June 1 and felt sore a few days later. An MRI showed a stress fracture of a rib, Thomson revealed June 10. On the IL for a physical injury for the first time since 2017, Nola was 1-7 with a 6.16 ERA in nine starts and 49 2/3 innings. Nick Castellanos sits after hurting knee Right fielder Nick Castellanos was out of the starting lineup Saturday, a day after getting hurt in the Phillies' 12-5 win over the Yankees . 'The last play last night where he went back towards the wall, just kind of jammed his left knee a little bit,' Thomson said. 'He came in a little bit sore today, so keep him out, see how he is tomorrow.' Alec Bohm update Alec Bohm is to meet up with the Phillies on Sunday, travel with the team to Chicago and be evaluated. Bohm broke a left rib when hit by a 92.2 mph Yu Darvish pitch at San Diego on July 12. The third baseman and first baseman returned July 18 following the All-Star break, then went on the injured list. 'Still a little bit sore,' Thomson said. ___ AP MLB:
