By default, when you create a primary key, this results in a clustered
index. However, that does not mean that just because there is a PK,
that there is a clustered index on the table, as the PK can deliberately
have been created as non-clustered.
(And in many cases, clustering on the PK is not the best choice.)
As for your original question, am I right to suspect that the table
in question is fairly small? If there is only data for 1½ index page,
there will be some free space that will look like fragmentation.
