The Indiana Fever seek their fourth win of the 2026 season on Friday, May 22, against the Golden State Valkyries, and star Caitlin Clark will be back in action.

In Clark’s absence on Wednesday, Kelsey Mitchell and Aliyah Boston, the latter of whom was returning from an injury of her own, combined for 45 points in the win against Portland.
