They will try to finish the first half of the season on a strong note.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementMyisha Hines-Allen missed the Fever’s previous game against the Las Vegas Aces due to personal reasons. The team has dealt with several injuries to Caitlin Clark, Sophie Cunningham and Aliyah Boston during their recent trip.Caitlin ClarkGettyCaitlin Clark #22 of the Indiana Fever celebrates with Lexie Hull #10 after scoring the game-winning three pointer during the second half against the Washington Mystics at CareFirst Arena on June 08, 2026 in Washington, DC.According to the Indiana Fever’s official injury report, Caitlin Clark is listed as probable with a back injury. It’s the same injury that she has been dealing with since the start of the season. She initially missed one game because of the injury on May 20 against the Portland Fire.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAfter getting warned by the WNBA about the way they handled the injury, the Fever have been tagging Clark as probable since then. She has been probable for 15 games since May 20, though she re-aggravated the injury on June 24 against the Phoenix Mercury.Clark ended up missing three of the last five games, but she played in the Fever’s 109-75 win over the Las Vegas Aces on Sunday. She’s expected to suit up tonight once she goes through her usual routine before the game.It also won’t be surprising if Clark remains on a minutes restriction. She was initially on a “three-minute bursts” plan upon her return on July 8, but she called it out after failing to gain any rhythm. She was on a minutes restriction against the Aces, playing 24 minutes and scoring 12 points.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementMyisha Hines-Allen isn’t on the injury report, so she’s expected to return to the lineup. Sophie Cunningham appears to be over her back spasms after scoring 20 points in Las Vegas. Aliyah Boston was rested in the first game of a back-to-back on July 9, which was just a precautionary measure.Sophie CunninghamGettySophie Cunningham #8 of the Indiana Fever points to the fans after defeating the Phoenix Mercury in the WNBA game at Mortgage Matchup Center on July 09, 2026
