Damiris Dantas (left knee) will not play during the Indiana Fever’s three-game road trip, which begins Tuesday vs. the Seattle Storm.

The veteran center did not travel with the team and is instead rehabbing in Indiana, according to Fever coach Stephanie White.

A source told IndyStar Dantas did not practice July 21 because of an appointment. She was then ruled out for the following night’s game vs. the Connecticut Sun with left knee soreness.


White declined to specify the injury Dantas is dealing with.

Dantas has appeared in 12 games for the Fever this season, averaging 8.2 minutes, 3.3 points and 1.5 rebounds.

Raven Johnson will be available Tuesday, White confirmed. She was a late scratch from last Wednesday’s game vs. Connecticut after suffering a lower body injury during warmups.

Caitlin Clark (back) was listed as probable on the injury report, but is available and will start.

The Fever travel to Portland on Friday, then wrap up the three-game road trip at Minnesota on Sunday.
