As the Indiana Fever tipped off their training camp on Sunday, the preseason is a couple of days away. This year, they will play three preparation games before the regular season.
Caitlin Clark will go back to Carver-Hawkeye Arena to face the Brazilian national team in the second preseason game. The former No. 1 overall pick spent four years playing at this arena, becoming the greatest player in the program’s history and one of the best college athletes of all time.
