The Indiana Fever may be missing Caitlin Clark, but the pressure will still be on as they host the Connecticut Sun in a Friday night WNBA clash.
Clark, the superstar guard, is dealing with a strained quad that Indiana expects to keep her out for a handful of games. The Fever will have to adjust, as Clark was the team leader in points and assists at the time of her injury. Center Aliyah Boston will likely become more of a focal point, while veteran guards Sophie Cunningham and DeWanna Bonner (who left the Sun for Indiana during the offseason) are expected to see their roles expanded.
For Connecticut, Clark’s absence may be an opportunity. The Sun are at the beginning of a substantial rebuild, and it’s been a rocky start. Connecticut is 0-5 heading into this game, with three losses by more than 20 points. Without Clark to contend with, Marina Mabrey and Tina Charles may have an opening to pull off what would be a substantial upset.
