Caitlin Clark has had yet another phenomenal season with the Indiana Fever.

Clark and the rest of the Fever stars, including Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell, have been playing under coach Stephanie White.

White rejoined the organization after a stint with the Connecticut Sun. She previously played for the Fever from 2000 to 2004 and severed as an assistant coach for the organization from 2011 to 2014 as well as a head coach from 2015 to 2016.

She's looking to lead Indiana to a WNBA title, but injuries have been a major factor in the development of the Fever during her first season back with the team.

Clark, widely considered the biggest stars in the WNBA, has missed 11 games for the Indiana Fever. She's currently nursing a groin injury that's kept her sidelined through the All-Star break.

White recently discussed Clark's injury explaining that she's trusting the Fever's medical staff to take care of the Indiana star and will await their decision on Clark's return.

"I don't presume to give any timetables," White said. "It's whatever the medical staff says. That's what I go by."

The Fever are set to face the New York Liberty on Tuesday, their first game back since the WNBA All-Star break.

Clark was recently ruled out of the matchup after previously missing the All-Star game and 3-Point contest at the event.

Throughout her second season with the Fever, Clark has posted 16.5 points, 5.0 rebounds and 8.8 assists per game.
