Connecticut has ruled out Griner due to a left knee injury as she will miss her seventh consecutive contest.

Nelson-Ododa has been listed as questionable and she is in danger of missing her third straight game with a right knee injury.

The Fever have two players listed on their injury report, though Aliyah Boston is not one of them.
Of course, Boston missed Sunday’s victory over the Sky due to a lower right leg injury but she is off the injury report and will return against the Sun.
Indiana has listed Clark as probable and she is expected to play despite dealing with a lingering back injury that she has dealt with for most of the season.
The Fever have ruled out Damiris Dantas as she will miss the remainder of the season while recovering from left knee surgery.
Fans can catch Friday night’s matchup between the Sun and Fever from Indianapolis at 7:30 p.m. ET on ION.
