Subsequently, for any fan worried about Clark being on the Fever’s injury report, there appears to be nothing to be concerned about, as she is listed as “probable” for the game against the Sun with the back issue. For active observers of the injury report, Clark has been on it since the first week of the season because of the back issue, which has been a nagging problem this year.

Still, it isn’t enough to disrupt her chances of playing for Indiana, and it hasn’t impacted her production, as Clark is in a season where she is considered one of the players running for Most Valuable Player (MVP). So far this season for the Fever, Clark is averaging 22.1 points, 8.3 assists, and 3.8 rebounds per game while shooting 45 percent from the field and 36.8 percent from beyond the arc.

Consequently, with regard to the team’s success, Clark has helped Indiana to a 25-14 record, which puts them second in the Eastern Conference, 0.5 games back of the Atlanta Dream, and fourth in the entire WNBA ahead of Friday night against Connecticut.

At any rate, it remains to be seen if Clark’s back issue subsides throughout the injury, as each injury report will be one to watch for any fan of the Fever and the 24-year-old sensation.
