Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark has officially been ruled out of the Commissioner's Cup championship game on Tuesday with a left groin injury. The Fever, who are in the championship for the first time in franchise history, will have to take on the defending champion Minnesota Lynx without their best player.

The Indiana Fever have won their first WNBA Commissioner's Cup. The Fever, despite being without star Caitlin Clark, defeated the Minnesota Lynx 74-59 to claim the fifth-ever Commissioner's Cup.

Caitlin Clark wasn't able to suit up with her teammates in the Commissioner's Cup final on Tuesday evening, as she's still nursing a groin injury that's cost her eight games on the season. Even in her absence, the Indiana Fever were able to get the job done, defeating the Minnesota Lynx to win the in-season tournament, 74–59.
