Just days before a crucial matchup against the Atlanta Dream, the Indiana Fever hit the floor for a high-energy, full-team practice — and two names drew the most attention: Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham.

Both players were back on the court, fully engaged in drills, scrimmages, and team sessions, signaling that the Fever are ramping up for a stronger, more aggressive push in the coming games.

Caitlin Clark Locked In

After drawing national headlines for her impact on and off the court, rookie star Caitlin Clark continues to show why she’s one of the most electrifying players in the league. At today’s practice, Clark looked sharp, focused, and explosive.

Observers noted:

Full-court fast break reps with her signature no-look passes

Knock-down accuracy from three-point range, including logo shots

Vocal leadership, constantly communicating with teammates

“We know what we’re capable of,” Clark said post-practice. “This is about putting it together — one game at a time.”

Sophie Cunningham Brings the Energy

Returning from recent time away, Sophie Cunningham brought a much-needed spark to the gym. The veteran wing was active in shooting drills, defensive rotations, and physical scrimmages, even diving for loose balls and getting teammates hyped.

“Having Sophie back adds edge and toughness — she’s loud, fearless, and brings veteran confidence,” one assistant coach said.

Cunningham’s presence adds more spacing, defensive grit, and versatility to a young Fever team that’s still finding its rhythm.

Team Chemistry Building Ahead of Dream Matchup

With both Clark and Cunningham participating fully, the Fever are expected to enter the Atlanta game with more firepower and stability — key factors as they aim to bounce back from early-season struggles.

Head Coach Christie Sides emphasized team growth:

“This group is learning how to win together. Practice today was competitive, physical, and focused. That’s what we need.”

Scouting the Atlanta Dream

The Atlanta Dream bring their own weapons, including defensive pressure and a deep backcourt. Clark acknowledged the challenge:

“They’re fast, they’re athletic, and they pressure the ball well. We’ve got to stay poised and move the ball. If we do that — we can beat anyone.”

Momentum Is Building

The Fever’s practice atmosphere today was electric — from Clark’s deep threes to Cunningham’s hustle, to the team’s growing chemistry, Indiana is trending upward.

And with a must-win game against the Dream on the horizon, the return of these two key players could be the spark that changes everything.

Caitlin Clark is ready. Sophie Cunningham is back. And the Fever are gearing up to fight. Don’t blink — this team’s not done yet.
