Injured Caitlin Clark Supports Indiana Fever in WNBA Semifinals Over High School Hall of Fame Ceremony

Caitlin Clark, star guard for the Indiana Fever, chose to miss her induction into the Dowling Catholic High School Athletic Hall of Fame to support her team during the WNBA semifinals against the Las Vegas Aces. Despite being sidelined for the season due to multiple injuries, including a season-ending right groin injury, Clark has remained a constant presence on the sidelines, demonstrating her commitment to the Fever's surprising playoff run. The Fever, missing several key players including Clark, upset the Atlanta Dream in the first round but fell behind 2-1 against the Aces in the semifinals. The Hall of Fame ceremony was scheduled just 15 minutes before Game 3 tipped off, making Clark's decision a clear prioritization of team over personal accolades. Her father accepted the honor on her behalf at Dowling Catholic High School in Iowa, where she holds records such as all-time assists and once scored 60 points in a single game. This decision highlights Clark's dedication to her team during a challenging season marked by injuries and adversity.
