Caitlin Clark Breaks Silence on Indiana Fever’s Offseason Additions
When the Indiana Fever won the 2024 WNBA Draft lottery, it was clear that Caitlin Clark would be the franchise’s cornerstone moving forward. The former Iowa Hawkeyes star entered the league with massive expectations and quickly became one of the WNBA’s biggest names with a record-breaking rookie season.
However, despite her individual brilliance, Clark and the Fever fell short in the first round of the WNBA playoffs, signaling the need for key roster upgrades. This offseason, Indiana made significant moves, re-signing Kelsey Mitchell and bringing in veteran stars DeWanna Bonner, Natasha Howard, and Sophie Cunningham to bolster the team.
Now, Clark has spoken out for the first time about these game-changing additions—and she’s fired up.
Clark Embraces Fever’s Revamped Roster
With the Fever’s newly added championship experience, Clark believes the team is ready to take the next step in 2025. In a recent interview with ESPN, she expressed her excitement about the franchise’s direction:
“They know what it takes to win, they know what it takes to get to the Finals, they know what it takes to win championships. I think it’s exactly what we needed in our locker room.”
For Clark, these additions provide something the Fever lacked last season—playoff-tested leadership. While she remains the face of the team, she understands the importance of building a complete roster to compete at the highest level.
“I think it will be a lot of fun to get in the gym and be with my teammates and just start putting the pieces together and see what works or what doesn’t. But I think we’re going to have a lot of different options to do a lot of different things. I think that’s what’s super exciting.”
Fever’s Rise as a Powerhouse in Women’s Sports
Beyond the team’s title aspirations, Clark also reflected on the growing impact of the Fever on women’s sports.
“This is the franchise of all women’s sports, I say, no matter what sport it is. They see the type of crowds we get, the excitement we’re generating not only in Indiana but all across the country. I think the next few years are going to be amazing for this franchise and will continue to be for, hopefully, the next 10 years. Hopefully, we win a few championships.”
With a stronger supporting cast, Clark and the Fever are primed for a deep postseason run in 2025. If everything clicks, Indiana could quickly emerge as a legitimate NBA title contender, with Clark leading the charge.
The message is clear: Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever are ready to make noise in 2025—and they’re just getting started.
