- Caitlin Clark returned to the Indiana Fever’s regular‑season lineup for the first time since July 15, after missing most of the season with injuries.
- Caitlin Clark posted 20 points, seven assists and five rebounds in the Fever’s 107‑104 loss to the Dallas Wings, shooting 2‑for‑9 from three‑point range and hitting a 29‑foot three‑pointer before delivering a behind‑the‑back bounce pass to Myisha Hines‑Allen for a layup.
- Caitlin Clark left the bench twice for medical staff to adjust her back, but returned each time and finished the game, saying she felt “good” and “fast” after early anxiety.
- Stephanie White said the back adjustments were part of maintaining proper body mechanics and that the team wouldn’t have kept Clark in 30 minutes if she wasn’t cleared.
Why it matters: Clark’s medical clearance lets the Fever keep her in the lineup for up to 30 minutes per game, giving the team a proven 20‑point scorer for the remainder of the season.
