Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham called "bulls--t" on the idea that the team or WNBA is being purposefully deceptive over the injury to star Caitlin Clark.

While Clark is sidelined by injury, fellow No. 1 WNBA draft pick Bueckers is finishing off a terrific rookie season

Caitlin Clark has missed the last month of on-court action since suffering a groin injury against the Connecticut Sun on July 15. On Sunday, the Indiana Fever point guard will miss her 13th consecutive game.

The WNBA set a new regular-season attendance record on Friday, reaching the 2.43 million mark, per Colin Salao of Front Office Sports. The previous record was 2,364,736 fans back in 2002.

The Indiana Fever have been forced to hurdle several obstacles throughout the WNBA season, under head coach Stephanie White. White came into the season looking to lead the Fever to WNBA title contention in her first year with Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston, Sophie Cunningham and other stars.

Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark suffered a bone bruise on her left ankle during a workout earlier this month, a source confirmed to ESPN on Wednesday.  Clark has since been rehabbing the ankle concurrently with the right groin injury that has sidelined her for the past month-plus of the WNBA season.

Caitlin Clark has not played for the Indiana Fever since suffering a groin injury on July 15, but that's apparently not the only injury she's dealing with. During a workout in Phoenix on August 7, Clark tweaked her ankle, according to Scott Agness of the Fieldhouse Files, adding to her injury-riddled sophomore season.
