Caitlin Clark is officially back from her groin injury for the Indiana Fever—but it wasn’t a fairy-tale return. In her first game back against the Golden State Valkyries, the Indiana Fever fell 80–61. Clark managed just 10 points shooting 4/12 from the floor and 2/5 from three. The Valkyries held the Fever to only 30.9% shooting overall.
Golden State's backcourt took center stage. Veronica Burton led all scorers with 21 points thanks to five made 3s, adding 8 rebounds and 6 assists . Recently re-signed rookie guard Kaitlyn Chen also made waves, along with Kayla Thornton’s 18 point and 8 rebound peformance.
All-Star captains Caitlin Clark and Napheesa Collier sparked headlines by trading coaches mid-draft. Clark dumped Minnesota’s Cheryl Reeve—who she’s had public tension with—for New York’s Sandy Brondello. This unprecedented move feels like more than game-time strategy—it’s a pointed statement in their complicated history.
