Caitlin Clark comments on WNBA, Indiana Fever injury saga

Before making her return on Friday night against the Golden State Valkyries from Ginbridge Fieldhouse, Caitlin Clark spoke to the media and cleared any suspicion of foul play by the Indiana Fever in its decision to rule her out on May 20. "Tuesday, I was here, got treatment. As I've done many practices before, as I've made my teammates have done, had every intention of playing, didn't indicate I wasn't going to play, approached Wednesday, that was the day of our game, as I was 100% playing, woke up Tuesday, a little sore, texting our training staff, texting my personal physio...

Then I had PT at home, then I came down here about like 1 p. m. , and we tried to do everything we could, got on the court, I lifted, and went through a hard workout.

" "I actually went back and looked because of all these narratives that are going crazy online about when I told my mom I was going to play the game: 4:47 p. m. You guys found out at 5:20 p.

m. So, one of the most important people in my life found out 40 minutes before you guys. So, that's what my last two days leading up to that Wednesday game looked like," Clark said.
