The star who’s reshaping the future of women’s basketball

After a whirlwind rookie season and a well-earned break, Caitlin Clark returns to Indiana training camp with renewed energy, a retooled roster, and her eyes firmly set on a WNBA title

INDIANA star Caitlin Clark slapped the court with both hands and started gesturing in her side’s direction after forcing a five-second call near the end of today’s practice.

It was only day two of training camp, yet this is what Clark has yearned for these past seven months — going back to work with a new coach, a revamped roster and even higher expectations in her second WNBA season.

After leading the Fever to their first play-off berth in eight years, winning the league’s Rookie of the Year Award, being named Associated Press 2024 Female Athlete of the Year and Time magazine’s 2024 Athlete of the Year, Clark returned to Indianapolis a stronger, wiser player, more determined to win the championship that eluded her in college.
