Aari McDonald has impressed with the Fever. But with Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham nearing returns, she won't be able to be on team much longer.

One player who stepped up in her absence is Kelsey Mitchell. On June 3 against the Washington Mystics, she scored 24 points, two rebounds and three assists. Meanwhile, against the Chicago Sky on Saturday, she put up 17 points, five rebounds and two assists.

After four seasons with the Iowa Hawkeyes, Clark was selected with the No. 1 pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft. In her rookie year, she earned All-WNBA first-team honors after averaging 19.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, and a league-leading 9.3 assists per game.

The post Fever-Sky still hit CBS milestone despite Caitlin Clark’s absence appeared first on ClutchPoints. Even with Caitlin Clark out with a quad injury, the game between the Chicago Sky and Indiana Fever at the United Center in Chicago last Saturday had solid ratings for the WNBA on CBS.

McDonald recently joined the Fever through a hardship contract after Cunningham, Clark and guard Sydney Colson got injured. While the former No. 3 overall draft pick has struggled thus far in the WNBA, she has scored in double figures in two of her three games with the Fever.
