It is uncertain when Clark sustained the injury after appearing in each of Indiana바카라™s first four games this season and averaging 19 points, 9.3 assists and six rebounds.
Indiana (2-2) said further updates will be provided, as available, on Clark바카라™s status following reevaluation.
Clark has yet to miss a game in her WNBA career after being the No. 1 overall pick in 2024 and going on to earn league Rookie of the Year honours.
She broke the league's single-season assist mark last season with 337 - including a WNBA-record 19 in one game - and averaged 8.4 to become the first rookie to lead the league in assists per game.
Clark바카라™s 122 3-pointers led all WNBA players in 2024, and she scored the most points ever by a rookie with 769 while ranking seventh in the league with 19.2 per game.
Clark added 5.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game to help the Fever reach the play-offs for the first time since 2016 with a 20-20 record.
Sixth-seeded Indiana was swept by the No. 3 seed Connecticut Sun in a best-of-three series in the first round, with Clark averaging 18 points, 8.5 assists, five rebounds and two steals in a pair of losses.
