She had 12 points to help lead the Fever to an 83-80 preseason win over the Atlanta Dream. It was a moment Indianapolis fans have dreaming about since they won the lottery in December.
Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark is introduced before the team's preseason WNBA basketball game against the Atlanta Dream in Indianapolis, Thursday, May 9, 2024.
But Clark helped rally the Fever from an early double-digit deficit and when she knocked down the long 3 with 2:17 left in the third, Indiana led 68-60. And through it all she was both a big hit and a welcome change for a franchise in search of a turnaround. Indiana was initially scheduled to play Friday but moved the game when the NBA announced the Indiana Pacers and New York Knicks would play Game 3 of their best-of-seven series in that time slot.
For Clark, playing in front of full arena has become the norm. For her teammates and coaches, this could be the start of something bigger than they could have imagined.
