New angle of Caitlin Clark’s step-back triple over A’ja Wilson looks even better

Caitlin Clark was back in action for the Indiana Fever on Sunday night. The former WNBA Rookie of the Year sat out for the second time in three games on Thursday against the Phoenix Mercury due to a back injury. Clark shrugged off her back issue for a return against the defending champions, the Las Vegas Aces, on Sunday.

The 24-year-old has been dealing with a back issue for pretty much the entire season. She missed one game in May because of the same injury. On June 24 against the Mercury, Clark tweaked her back after getting fouled on a three-point attempt. She has since been sidelined in three out of her team’s last five games.

Clark was still on a minutes restriction on Sunday as the Fever continues to manage her back injury. However, it did not appear to bother her during the game.

Clark looked great to start the contest, busting out a couple of crossovers to shake reigning WNBA MVP A’ja Wilson. Clark then took a high-arcing shot over the outstretched arm of the 6-foot-4 Aces center. The ball hit the bottom of the net for the Indiana superstar’s first points of the evening.

Clark played her part in Indiana’s 109-75 blowout win over the Aces. She registered 12 points on 5-of-11 shooting, seven rebounds, six assists and one three-pointer in 24 minutes of action.

It was a massive win for the Fever, who have now ended their four-game road stand with a statement victory over the champs.
