Caitlin Clark wasn’t able to play in this year’s All-Star game due to a groin injury. It was a crushing blow to every fan who showed up to Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Saturday night.
Unfortunately, injuries have plagued Clark this season. Not only has she suffered a groin injury twice in the past month, she has missed time due to a quad strain. Just a few days ago, she received some words of encouragement from fellow All-Star guard Sabrina Ionescu.
“I’ve been able to talk to her a lot through this process,” Ionescu said. “Honestly, I went through something kind of similar in my career. My first year I didn’t play due to injury, and then in my second year I had a few soft-tissue injuries. You look back and it’s kind of a blessing in disguise because you’re able to just learn and grow and understand it’s just part of your journey.”
Ionescu also gave Clark credit for being the face of the league, telling reporters “she means a lot more to the game than just showing up and playing.”
If Clark was healthy this past weekend, she would’ve shared a backcourt with Ionescu. That being said, it’s possible we’ll see them join forces in the future.

On Sunday night, Ionescu shared photos from All-Star weekend in Indy. Her post received this comment from Clark: “looking real natural in that locker room.”
There’s no guarantee Clark and Ionescu will be teammates, but fans are certainly hoping that’ll happen.
“Future teammates in Indiana,” one fan replied.
“Splash sisters,” another fan said.
“Please team up,” a third fan wrote.
Ionescu has been outstanding for the New York Liberty, earning All-Star honors four times since 2020. It’s hard to envision a world where she leaves the Big Apple for Indiana, but Clark might just be an excellent recruiter.
