The Indiana Fever will likely be without guard Caitlin Clark again on Sunday for their game against the Connecticut Sun.
Clark has missed 12 consecutive games due to a right groin injury.
In an appearance on the "Bird's Eye View" podcast with Sue Bird earlier this month, Clark said she still didn't have a timetable for a potential return.
She had been listed as a game-time decision on WNBA.com ahead of the Fever's Aug. 12 game, but she did not return that day against the Dallas Wings. The Fever's probable starters for Sunday's game did not include Clark.
Clark underwent additional medical evaluations late last month, but the results showed "no additional injuries or damage."
She has dealt with multiple injuries this season that have kept her out of action. She was previously sidelined for five games due to a left quad injury and four games with a left groin injury. Clark also missed the Fever's Commissioner's Cup win and the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game and 3-point competition.
The Fever have struggled to stay healthy at the guard position, losing Aari McDonald (broken foot) and Sydney Colson (ACL) to season-ending injuries earlier this month.
The Fever signed Odyssey Sims to a hardship contract on Sunday, Aug. 10.
