INDIANAPOLIS – Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark’s absence due to a strained left quad has had a significant impact on WNBA TV ratings.
The league's TV ratings have declined with Clark sidelined.
Clark, the second-year star, has played in just four games this season and has missed the Fever’s past five games. Indiana coach Stephanie White said the team is "going to be cautious" with Clark and make sure she's fully ready to go before allowing her to play again. The 4-5 Fever’s next game is Saturday, June 14, against New York.
Clark averaged 19 points, 9.3 assists and 6.0 rebounds in her four games and had a triple-double (20 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists) in the season opener.
