Indianapolis, IN – The wait is over. The Indiana Fever have officially opened training camp, kicking off what could be their most highly anticipated season in over a decade. With a revamped roster, a new energy, and a championship mindset, the Fever are stepping onto the court with more momentum — and expectations — than ever before.

This marks the beginning of a new era for Indiana, one built around a core of rising stars, including 2023 No. 1 overall pick Aliyah Boston and the highly touted rookie Caitlin Clark, the No. 1 pick in 2024. The buzz surrounding the Fever hasn’t been this loud since their 2012 WNBA Championship run — and this time, it feels like something big is truly brewing.

The Roster: A Dangerous Blend of Youth and Talent
Aliyah Boston enters her sophomore season as the reigning Rookie of the Year and a dominant force in the paint. With the addition of Caitlin Clark — whose college career rewrote record books and captivated a national audience — Indiana now boasts a one-two punch that could immediately challenge any defense in the league.

Returning veterans like Kelsey Mitchell, NaLyssa Smith, and Erica Wheeler provide the experience, leadership, and grit necessary to balance out the young stars. And under head coach Christie Sides, now in her second year, the team is laser-focused on making a deep postseason push.

A Championship Mentality
While the Fever haven’t made the playoffs since 2016, this year’s squad has the pieces to end that drought. More than that, they’re entering the 2025 season not just hoping to compete — but aiming to win. Training camp will be the proving ground for team chemistry, lineup rotations, and setting the tone for what could be a breakthrough year.

Coach Sides said during media day:
“This is a team that’s hungry. They’re not just here to learn; they’re here to win. And the work starts now.”

All Eyes on Caitlin Clark
The arrival of Caitlin Clark is arguably the most talked-about storyline in the WNBA this year. Known for her deep shooting range, court vision, and competitive fire, Clark is already drawing comparisons to some of the league’s greats. Fans are eager to see how quickly she adapts to the pro level and how her dynamic with Boston will evolve on the court.

Clark commented after her first practice:
“I’m excited to be here, to learn from my teammates, and to help this team win. That’s what it’s all about.”

What’s Next
The Fever will continue training camp over the next two weeks, leading up to their first preseason game. With ticket sales surging and national attention locked in, Indiana Fever basketball is officially back — and this time, they’re aiming for nothing less than a championship.
