New York Liberty head coach Sandy Brondello says she is looking forward to coaching Caitlin Clark in the WNBA All-Star Game on Saturday as a lingering groin injury threatens the Fever star’s status for the weekend.
Indiana Fever star guard Caitlin Clark announced on Thursday that the right groin injury that she suffered in Tuesday's win over the Connecticut Sun will force her to miss Friday's WNBA 3-Point Contest and Saturday's All-Star Game.
Wings game was a sneak peek of what could be on the way: a back-and-forth boxing match between the WNBA's past two No. 1 overall picks, who double as global phenomena with a combined 6.2 million Instagram followers.
Bluder's words perhaps take on more relevance now, nearly a month after Clark's latest dust-up with Connecticut Sun's Marina Mabrey. Clark's teammate, Sophie Cunningham, showed her willingness to defend Clark during a heated Fever-Sun contest that saw Clark get shoved to the ground and featured a chaotic end-of-game brawl.
