Caitlin Clark is quietly reshaping her approach after a season cut short by a groin injury that sidelined her for more than 19 games. The 23-year-old Indiana Fever star told reporters she plans to be more selective in practice, ease up on reps and tweak how she contributes on the court. Read on to discover the full story!

Fewer reps, smarter preparation

At media day Clark explained she will intentionally take fewer repetitions in long training-camp sessions to reduce wear and tear. She singled out marathon practice days — sometimes two and a half to three hours — as moments where moderation matters most.

More impact off the ball

Clark said she wants to become more effective away from the ball, allowing teammates to carry more responsibility while she conserves energy for decisive moments. The goal is to keep her influence without overtaxing her body.
