Why Caitlin Clark’s Return Could Ignite Indiana’s Darkest Basketball Comeback Yet
While Clark may not be a difference maker on the defensive side of the ball, she’s not a liability either. She rates among the best Fever defenders by defensive DRIP.
There shouldn’t be much concern about a steep defensive drop-off when Clark returns. The Fever’s strength defensively will continue to be Boston’s versatility inside, solid play on the wings and a cohesive unit that’s greater than the sum of its parts.
There will still be a feeling-out process when Clark returns, which still seems to be a few weeks away. With all the new players on the roster this year, it’s imperative that Clark gets in a healthy stretch of several games in a row so the team can be fully actualized in the playoffs.
