Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark, who suffered a right groin injury on July 15, will not return this season, she announced Thursday on social media.

Clark, 23, played in just 13 games for the Fever (21-20), who are contending for one of the final three playoff spots with a week remaining in the regular season.

The WNBA's biggest star and the No. 1 overall pick in 2024, Clark averaged 16.5 points, five rebounds and 8.8 assists this season. The assist average led the league before her injury.
