The Fever will have at least six months of offseason to improve and go further in 2025
Caitlin Clark’s first season in the WNBA has officially come to a close, and it was nothing short of remarkable. Her season was filled with records and far more highs than lows, especially as she hit her stride after the Olympic break. Clark exceeded the already sky-high expectations placed on her, which led to her being named the unanimous Rookie of the Year. She also secured a spot on the All-WNBA Team alongside MVP A’Ja Wilson, Napheesa Collier, Breanna Stewart, and Alyssa Thomas. Unfortunately, Clark’s Indiana Fever was eliminated in the first round of the playoffs by Thomas and the Connecticut Sun, who claimed an 87-81 victory in game 2.
Clark’s Offseason Plans
Before the month-long Olympic break in July, Clark hadn’t had much rest since her junior season in 2023. Her packed schedule included a tough loss in the National Chamìonship to South Carolina just days before the most-watched WNBA Draft in history, followed by preseason games and a full slate of 40 regular season contests. Now, after being eliminated in two games against the Sun, Clark and the Fever players will have nearly six months off. When asked what her plans are for the offseason, Clark said, “I was focused on beating Connecticut, so I’ve never thought too far ahead. I don’t even know what I’m going to do tomorrow. Maybe I’ll play some golf.”
The break is more than well-deserved for Clark, who has been the primary driver behind the WNBA’s growth in ratings, sales, and viewership across various categories. For example, 22 regular-season games this season averaged more than 1 million viewers. When you add the WNBA All-Star Game and the WNBA Draft – both of which were the most-watched in history – the total reaches 24 programming events that surpassed 1 million viewers. According to Sports Media Watch, Clark was involved in all but three of these games, and last night’s game is expected to draw similar, if not higher, numbers than the 1.8 million viewers from Game 1 on Sunday.
A Historic Season for Clark

Clark’s stats tell the full story. Her rookie season with the Fever showed just how focused and committed she is. She led the entire WNBA in assists per game (8.4), set the record for most assists in a season (337), and holds the single-game record for assists (19). Clark also led the league in three-pointers made (122), ranking second all-time for most threes in a season, just behind Sabrina Ionescu’s 128, while becoming the rookie with the most three-pointers in league history.
Among rookies, Clark topped nearly every category this season-points, assists, three-pointers, field goals, and steals. She also became the first rookie to record a triple-double, achieving this feat twice. She set records for most points (769), assists, and three-pointers by a rookie in a single season, proving that despite the opposition’s attempts to study her game, she remains virtually unstoppable. For the 22-year-old rookie, this is just the beginning, and her game-and fame-are only expected to grow in the years to come.
Former NFL Quarterback Brett Favre Lashes Out At Taylor Swift, Accuses Her Of Using Her “Influence” For Foul Reasons

Former NFL star quarterback Brett Favre has taken a swipe at pop sensation Taylor Swift for political reasons ahead of the upcoming 2024 presidential elections.
The 11-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro is known to be a supporter of former President Donald Trump and has previously endorsed him.
He’s since taken a shot at Swift, who recently endorsed Democratic candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris following Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes informing everyone that he wouldn’t endorse a candidate.
“Good take by Mahomes,” he wrote in a tweet.
“I see a lot of celebs trying to influence their audience instead of letting the people think for themselves. If the best choice for them ain’t clear and they’re easily swayed by their fav pop artist, it’s not going to be a good thing.”
