Caitlin Clark returned to the court for the Indiana Fever in a preseason game against the New York Liberty, marking her first appearance in nine months due to injuries that limited her to just 13 games last season. The Fever triumphed with a score of 109-91. Clark received a warm welcome from the crowd and quickly made her mark by scoring the game's first basket and following it up with a signature step-back 3-pointer. However, she struggled later in the game, finishing with seven points, four assists, and three rebounds in just under 17 minutes of play. Coach Stephanie White praised Clark's renewed energy and joy on the court, indicating a positive change from her previous seasons. The Fever played without several key players, including Aliyah Boston and Lexie Hull, while the Liberty were also missing some of their top athletes due to fitness concerns. Despite the preseason nature of the game, Clark emphasized the importance of every opportunity to play, especially after a challenging year.
