McDonald, 26, signed for the Fever this Monday having been released by the Los Angeles Sparks.
The new arrival had seven points, five assists and three steals off the bench.
And the Fever ran out 85-76 winners against the Washington Mystics.
It saw the team end their three-game losing streak.
Two of them came with Clark out due to a quad injury.
The second year star celebrated from the team’s bench as they ended the losing skid.
Clark was ruled out for a minimum of two weeks on May 26 after suffering the strain.
She will miss a rematch with Angel Reese this weekend.
The pair’s season-opening showdown led to heated scenes on court.
Reese was knocked to the ground by Clark during the Fever’s game against the Chicago Sky.
The Sky player got up and tried to confront her rival after the play.
Teammates quickly intervened before the incident got out of hand.
The WNBA investigated alleged fan abuse towards Reese after the moment.
The Sky and Fever are due to play again on June 7.
But that game will not see a rematch of Clark against Reese after the injury blow.
Ticket prices plummeted after news of Clark’s injury.
The game will be shown on CBS across the United States.
But ratings are expected to suffer massively without the rivalry element.
The Indiana Fever are 3-4 this season after their win Tuesday night.
