Indiana Fever Caitlin Clark Questionable For WNBA Cup Final With Groin Injury

Caitlin Clark, star guard for the Indiana Fever, is a game-time decision for the 2025 WNBA Commissioner's Cup Final against the Minnesota Lynx due to a left groin injury, which has sidelined her for the last two games. Clark has been struggling with injuries this season, including a prior left quadriceps strain, limiting her to nine games and contributing to a dip in her shooting percentages. Despite her injury woes, Clark remains a major draw for the league, recently being named a captain for the WNBA All-Star Game and setting a new fan voting record. Her impact extends beyond the court, with speculation from her biographer about the possibility of Clark starting her own basketball league, given her significant endorsements and popularity. The Fever have managed wins without her, led by Kelsey Mitchell, but Clark's presence is seen as pivotal for their success. The Lynx enter the final as strong favorites, having dominated recent games and holding home court advantage.
