Caitlin Clark is getting set for her third WNBA season with the Indiana Fever in 2026, hoping to have a healthier year than in 2025. Last season, the former Iowa Hawkeyes guard was only able to play in 13 games due to numerous injuries, missing a majority of the regular season and the entire playoffs, when Indiana advanced to Game 5 of the semifinals. The first game featured the No. 2 seed UConn Huskies against in-state No. 3 seed Illinois, with the Fighting Illini sent packing.
