Clark's Injury Scare: Fever Star Available for Nigerian Matchup
3 May
Summary
- Caitlin Clark, available for Saturday's game, scored 21 points in prior match.
- Clark sustained an injury but returned to play in a recent preseason game.
- Aliyah Boston and Ty Harris are also cleared to play in the upcoming game.
Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark is set to play in Saturday night's preseason game against the Nigerian national team, just days after a concerning mid-game collision. Clark, who scored 21 points in the previous matchup, appeared to shake off the injury, which occurred during a collision with a Dallas Wings player. She returned to make two free throws before remaining on the sideline. Concerns about her availability were heightened due to a history of injuries in 2025 that limited her to 13 games.
Adding to the positive outlook for the Indiana Fever, center Aliyah Boston is expected to make her debut on Saturday. Boston had missed the first two exhibition games due to an injury sustained while playing in Unrivaled. Guard Ty Harris has also been cleared to play. The team opens its regular season on May 9 in Dallas against the Wings, aiming for a healthy start to the WNBA's 30th season.
