The Indiana Fever star has missed the Fever’s past four games, including WNBA All-Star weekend festivities, due to a right groin injury she suffered against the Connecticut Sun on July 15.
Amid her rehab, Clark has been on a coach on the sidelines, arguing about calls with refs and cheering on her teammates.
Lately, however, one of Clark’s off-court shenanigans has elicited stern disapproval from her fans.
Clark was spotted in Iowa this week for the ribbon-cutting ceremony of her foundation’s new basketball court at McCombs Middle School.
Somebody recorded Caitlin Clark casually kicking a soccer ball at the middle school. She used her right leg to do so, and a movement like kicking a ball can strain the groin muscles and even worsen an existing strain.
The Fever released an update on July 24 saying that Clark “underwent further medical evaluations earlier this week, which confirmed that no additional injuries or damage were discovered.”
Clark has been limited to 13 games this season due to three different soft-tissue injuries.
Clark is set to miss her fifth straight game when the Fever host the Phoenix Mercury on Wednesday night. The Fever will then start August with four straight games on the road.
Fans Blasted Caitlin Clark
“Does she know she’s injured?😭” one fan asked.
“girl pls be careful with that groin 😩 anyways i’d like to see her play soccer again even if it’s just for fun, she’s just a demon at every sport,” a second fan stated.
“She really can’t just take it easy man she just like the kids lol,” a third fan wrote.
“Babe, are you not supposed to be resting that groin?” one final fan commented.
