Quick turnaround for Caitlin Clark, Fever on Wednesday vs. Sun

Shaking off a minor injury scare to lead her team to another victory, rookie Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever won’t have much time to rest as they return home for their next game.

The Fever (14-16) improved their playoff hopes considerably with Monday night’s 84-79 win in Atlanta, solidifying their hold on the No. 7 spot and keeping the Dream on the outside looking in.

Clark sat out part of the first quarter after she rolled her ankle, but returned to spark her team to victory.

Up next, however, is a much tougher test against the powerful Connecticut Sun (22-7), led by five-time WNBA All-Star and last season’s MVP runner-up Alyssa Thomas.
