Indiana Fever standout Caitlin Clark did not require a game-winning basket to capture attention this week. A single Instagram post was all she needed.
Sporting the Fever’s red and navy uniform and exuding her characteristic fierce confidence, Clark sent her 3.1 million followers—and the entire WNBA community—into excitement. “We are so back… YEAR 2❤️🔥,” she captioned a carousel of behind-the-scenes photos from the Fever’s 2025 Media Day.
The post quickly amassed hundreds of thousands of likes and comments from fans, teammates, and fellow athletes eager to see the next chapter of her journey.
It was a declaration that only Clark could make. Following a record-breaking rookie season that earned her both Rookie of the Year and All-WNBA First Team accolades, she has emerged as the face of a new chapter in women’s basketball. Averaging 19.2 points, 8.4 assists, and 5.7 rebounds per game, she led the league in total assists (337) and stands second on the all-time rookie record for three-pointers made, with 122.
Her impact was crucial in transforming the Indiana Fever from a struggling franchise to playoff contenders, breaking a seven-year postseason drought and reinvigorating the team’s spirit. The Fever concluded the 2024 season with a 20-20 record and are entering the new season with a bolstered roster, now featuring veteran players like DeWanna Bonner and Natasha Howard.
During the offseason, Clark concentrated on enhancing her strength and fine-tuning her skills. “I feel a lot stronger,” she shared, attributing her physical advancements to dedicated training and recovery. With aspirations to build on their recent success, the Fever acquired experienced athletes DeWanna Bonner and Natasha Howard to propel the team further into playoff contention and enhance Caitlin Clark’s development as a professional player.
While her post conveyed much, Clark also featured in a video shared by the Fever’s official Instagram during Media Day. “It’s Caitlin Clark. We’re here at Media Day. Year 2. It’s going great. We’re taking some great photos for you all. Stay tuned,” she said with a smile between takes.
As the tipoff for the 2025 WNBA season draws near, one thing is clear—Caitlin Clark is not taking her second year lightly. She’s diving into it with energy and passion. And judging by her Instagram posts, she’s bringing everyone along for the ride.
