What Happened to Aari McDonald? 3rd Injury Deepens Fever’s Guard Crisis After Colson, Cunningham Blows vs Mercury

2 min read

The Indiana Fever’s injury woes just keep piling up! It started with Caitlin Clark—Fever’s offensive core—who has been bitten by the injury bug not just once, twice, but three times this season, limiting her to just 13 games. And while the Fever have managed to play without their superstar, it seems things aren’t getting any better.

It all came up in a recent game wherein Aari McDonald was seen heading back to the locker room alongside athletic trainer Maria Witte after being subbed out, showing a noticeable limp. But she’s not the only one joining the injured list—both Sydney Colson and Sophie Cunningham fell victim to the bug, too.

Now, the Fever are suddenly staring at a depth crisis in their backcourt—and all this comes just after the trade deadline has passed!

 

 

Now Aari McDonald is heading back to the locker room with athletic trainer Maria Witte. She had a slight limp as she was subbed out.

That’s Colson, Cunningham, and now McDonald. Plus Clark out. That’s all their PGs.
