Fever need to dig deep to beat last-place Sun, then suffer apparent Caitlin Clark injury setback
Stephanie White addresses fresh Caitlin Clark injury concern
The Fever star guard left Tuesday’s win over Connecticut in the final minute.
BOSTON — The Indiana Fever recorded an 85-77 win over Connecticut at TD Garden on Tuesday night, but concerns swirled for Fever star Caitlin Clark’s health after she left the game late.
Indiana moved to 12-10 with the win, and play in less than 24 hours against New York in Brooklyn on Wednesday night.
Here are three observations:
Caitlin Clark winces, holds back tears as she leaves game
Caitlin Clark left Indiana’s game late in the fourth quarter after wincing and grabbing the top of her right leg.
With 39 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Clark checked out of the game after an assist to Kelsey Mitchell. She went to turn around on defense and grabbed near her groin on her right leg.
Clark has already had a groin injury this season, but that was on her left leg. She also had a left quad injury, and those two injuries kept her out for 10 total games so far this season.
Clark seemed to be tearing up on the sideline in the final seconds of the game, and she sat on the bench with a towel over her head as the Fever closed out the win.
“No update, just felt a little something in her groin, so we’ll get it evaluated and see what happens from there,” Fever coach Stephanie White said postgame.
Indiana allows Connecticut to stay close entire game
Indiana came into the game at 11-10, and Connecticut was 3-18. On paper, it seemed like Indiana should come away with an easy win.
But things aren’t as easy as they look. Especially when one of Connecticut’s three wins coming into the game was against Indiana.
Indiana could never create space against Connecticut on Tuesday night, no matter how much the Fever scored. The Fever scored 29 points in the first quarter, but only led by one as they allowed 28 to the Sun. At halftime and at the end of the third quarter, the lead was just two.
The Fever allowed 12 offensive rebounds and turned the ball over 12 times, giving Connecticut multiple extra possessions. Indiana still won the game at the end of the day, but it was much more difficult than it should’ve been.
Fan wearing Fever jersey gets ejected
A fan wearing a No. 22 Indiana Fever t-shirt jersey was ejected from his courtside seat in the second quarter.
It happened after a timeout, when Sun guard Saniya Rivers went to the sideline where the fan was sitting to inbound the ball. Rivers then stepped away from the sideline, having a passionate conversation with two referees.
Security eventually identified the fan, who was escorted out of his seat and taken up through the lower-level seats to the concourse. Other fans booed and waved goodbye as he left with a security escort.
It’s not clear what the fan said or did to Rivers for him to get ejected.

Ohio State was looking to cap off an undefeated regular season with a win over Indiana in the Big Ten Championship Game Saturday, but it wasn’t meant to be. In a defensive struggle, the Hoosiers made more plays when it mattered most and took advantage of their opportunities late for an old-school, classic 13-10 win in Lucas Oil Stadium
Give Indiana credit, but it was not the best game for the Buckeyes, and Ohio State head coach Ryan Day was clearly short and irritated after the contest in his postgame press conference. He didn’t take anything away from the Hoosiers, but was quick to point out the lack of execution by his team.
We have the entire Big Ten Championship Game press conference by Ryan Day and quarterback Juilian Sayin, thanks to the WBNS 10TV YouTube channel. Day laments the third-down conversions, play of the offensive line, lack of a running game, and more.
Ohio State must now regroup and try to go on another magical run like it did last year after another 13-10 loss as it gets ready for the College Football Playoff. We’ll know exactly what that path looks like on Sunday when the last CFP rankings are revealed.

The biggest college football game of the season (so far) takes place on Saturday when the No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes face the No. 2 Indiana Hoosiers for the Big Ten Championship. They’re both guaranteed a spot in the College Playoff, but, as the only two undefeated teams left, bragging rights and the Heisman trophy are both on the line. The championship game will go down on Hoosier territory at Lucas Oil Stadium.

SOUTH BEND, IN (WSBT) — On Friday, December 5th, the new Indiana Congressional Redistricting Map passed the Indiana House of Representatives, sending it to the Indiana State Senate.
Indiana University South Bend Political Science Professor, Elizabeth Bennion, said that some communities could potentially be split by the new potential lines.
This could put a strain on on local and county governments to place new voter precincts to fit the new districts.
According to Bennion, the lines were drawn using a super computer that was coded to give Republicans the best opportunity to win all 9 of Indiana’s House of Representative seats.
“One of the things we know about how this map is determined is that super computers are being used to Get as many GOP districts as possible. In other words to try to get as many safe seats for Republican candidates as possible to maximize the likelihood that the GOP will hold all of the seats in the US congressional delegation for the state of Indiana,” said Bennion.
