Caitlin Clark’s latest development of the closely followed season came about 24 hours before tip-off for the Indiana Fever’s latest game.
Clark was listed as a possible concussion before Thursday’s game against the Golden State Valkyries as she continues to struggle early in the WNBA season.
Meanwhile, all signs point to partner Bree Hall also being available for a deal.

Caitlin Clark was a late hitter in the Fever’s May 20 game against the Portland Fire, marking her first missed game of the season. Even without Clark, Indiana rolled to a 90-73 victory. The Fever hit 90 points again last Friday, this time with a win over the Valkyries.
While there were some concerns about Clark’s availability leading up to last week’s Fever-Valkyries game, those concerns were short-lived. Clark returned to the starting lineup and scored a team-high 22 points to help lift Indiana to its third straight victory.

Clark’s promising start to her WNBA career was derailed by injury in 2025. After appearing in 40 games and winning the 2024 Rookie of the Year, Clark was limited to just 13 appearances last season due to a strained hip and ankle injury.

On Wednesday, during the Fever’s off day before Thursday’s Golden State-Indiana rematch, Clark was spotted about a mile from the Valkyries’ home field attending a game between the San Francisco Giants and the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Clark attended the game with her boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, a former Iowa basketball player.

McCaffery and Clark were seen wearing Giants hats at Oracle Park, though Clark has admitted to liking the Phillies — even if the team wasn’t initially his top choice.
“My boyfriend grew up a big fan of the Phillies, so I had to love the Phillies. I love them, I love Bryce Harper. I still love the Cubs, I love the Yankees. I’m not like someone who misses any baseball team. My dad was a big fan of the Royals,” said the two-time WNBA All-Star in 2024.
“Kansas City was like a professional sports team to us. I liked the Chiefs before the Chiefs were really good, so I’m not a fan. I like the Phillies, so I’m going to cheer for them this season.”
