Caitlin Clark was downgraded from questionable to out for the Indiana Fever's matchup with the reigning champion New York Liberty on Wednesday, the team announced. Clark tweaked her right groin during the Fever's win over the Connecticut Sun on Tuesday and was in tears on the bench after checking out.

Clark had avoided injuries throughout her NCAA and WNBA stints until this season. The two-time All-Star has missed 10 games with quadriceps and groin injuries; the physical problems have affected her stats.
