Caitlin Clark downplayed being poked in the eye by Connecticut Sun guard DiJonai Carrington in Sunday’s WNBA first-round playoff loss, saying her eye “feels good.” The Fever will try to avoid elimination on Wednesday in Game 2 on Wednesday night.

“It wasn’t intentional by any means,” Clark said Tuesday. “You just watched the play, it wasn’t intentional.”

The injury occurred in the first quarter as Clark dribbled at the top of the perimeter and she passed to teammate Aliyah Boston, who was in the paint. As Clark made the pass, Carrington poked the Fever guard in the right eye as she attempted to get a hand on the ball. Clark immediately covered her face and fell to the court. She returned to the game after briefly going to the bench and played 36 minutes in her playoff debut.

After Game 1, Clark said that getting poked in the eye didn’t impact her performance.

“It didn’t bother me,” Clark said. “Obviously, it didn’t feel so good when it happened.”

Carrington’s foul on Clark led to an intense reaction on social media following Game 1, with some fans saying the Sun guard deliberately hit the Fever rookie. Carrington said Tuesday that she didn’t intend to poke Clark in the eye, noting she was “trying to make a play on the ball.”
