    The WNBA has enjoying an historic surge in popularity and revenue over the past year for a litany of reasons. Now the players are hoping to cash in with a new collective bargaining agreement. Unfortunately for the players, that doesn't seem to be happening anytime soon. Talks have stalled between the WNBA and the players' union, leaving the threat of a lockout or a strike on the not-too-distant horizon if a new CBA can't be hammered out soon. Amid the stalled talks, the WNBA players decided to protest the league's unwillingness to bend to their demands. At the WNBA All-Star...

    Indiana Fever head coach Stephanie White addressed the constant physicality star guard Caitlin Clark continues to face in the league after Clark went down with what appeared to be a groin injury during Tuesday night’s win over the Connecticut Sun. Speaking to reporters after the 85-77 win. White was asked about her thoughts on the "physical battle" Clark has faced – both throughout the season and in Tuesday’s game. "Are you trying to get me fined again?" White asked with a laugh, before expanding on her answer. "There’s a level of physicality that they’re able to play with against her....

    Indiana Fever president Kelly Krauskopf appeared to delete her X account, and social media users took notice ahead of the team's Friday night win over the Atlanta Dream. The previously-active account with the handle "@k2indytex" is now offline. The account was believed to belong to Krauskopf. Fox News Digital has reached out to the Fever for a response. The apparent deletion was noticed on social media the same day that comments from Krauskopf's introductory press conference resurfaced. During Krauskopf's Oct. 8 introductory address, the team president spoke about making the Fever an "enduring brand like Apple," while discussing Clark's presence...

    On July 9, NBA 2K (the world's most popular professional basketball video game) revealed the cover for the WNBA edition of NBA 2K26, which will release on September 5. The cover shows Chicago Sky superstar Angel Reese driving to the basket. Reese has burst onto the professional basketball scene during her first two WNBA seasons. She is already considered the league's most formidable rebounder on both offense and defense, and has shown major growth in her game when it comes to being a versatile scorer and playmaker for her teammates. Not to mention that she's undoubtedly one of the biggest...

    Sophie Cunningham, the Indiana Fever guard, has been making all sorts of headlines lately. The Fever guard went viral last month for being Caitlin Clark's "enforcer" during a game against the Connecticut Sun. She decked Sun guard Jacy Sheldon late in the game after Clark had gotten hit in the eye earlier in the contest. Cunningham has since become a fan favorite among those who support Clark. Cunningham, who starred collegiately at Missouri - and began her WNBA career in Phoenix - has since become one of the most-followed players in the league. Cunningham now has one million followers on...

    Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark and her WNBA contemporaries just took a step closer to an offseason strike following a weak first collective bargaining agreement proposal from the league. There have been rumblings for months that the WNBA and its players could be headed to a work stoppage after this season. How much players make has always been a hot-button topic around the league. And throughout its existence, its athletes did not have much leverage in CBA talks with the WNBA often taking losses. However, Caitlin Clark and the class of 2024 rookies helped expand the league’s popularity. And led...

    Caitlin Clark is assaulted by Chennedy Carter in a June 2024 WNBA game. Clark had no idea this was coming. ===================================================================== It looks like the WNBA, the worst sports league in the history of mankind, has finally killed its Golden Goose, Caitlin Clark. Former Iowa basketball player Caitlin Clark is the all-time greatest scorer in NCAA basketball. Along the way, she also broke most of the NCAA assist records. Iowa’s Caitlin Clark broke every record imaginable in women’s AND men’s basketball in the 2023-2024 season. • D-I scoring leader (3,951 pts) • only D-I player w/ 3,500 pts, 1,000 ast...

    American Thinker ^ | 21 Jun, 2025 | Susan Quinn
    Much controversy has erupted over how certain WNBA players treat Caitlin Clark, a white athlete with the Indiana Fever, and many people are pointing to racism. But many people on the left insist that blacks can be prejudiced, but they can’t be racist. A former editorial editor at Harvard’s Crimson publication writes on the ideology here: As one African-American lead character from the 2014 movie ‘Dear White People’ argues, ‘Black people can’t be racist. Prejudiced, yes, but not racist. Racism describes a system of disadvantage based on race. Black people can’t be racists since we don’t stand to benefit from...

    ESPN star Stephen A. Smith suggested on Wednesday that Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark was responsible for some of the resentment toward her in the WNBA. Smith and "First Take" panelists Monica McNutt and Christopher "Mad Dog" Russo broke down the skirmishes between Fever and Connecticut Sun players. Clark was on the receiving end of an eye poke from Sun guard Jacy Sheldon and was then bumped to the floor by Marina Mabrey. Clark and Sun players were talking trash throughout the game as tensions began to rise early and eventually boil over. Fever guard Sophie Cunningham also got into...

    New York Post ^ | June 17, 2025 | Andrew Battifarano
    Caitlin Clark was in the middle of a fiery scene between the Fever and Sun on Tuesday night. Clark, while dribbling with the ball in the offensive end of the court during the third quarter of Indiana’s 88-71 win at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, was fouled near the right eye by Jacy Sheldon. The Indiana star took exception and bumped and shoved Sheldon. That’s when the Sun came to the defense of Sheldon, with Tina Charles coming close to Clark and wagging her index finger, while Marina Mabrey was more physical, pushing Clark to the ground. After all was said and done,...

    Caitlin Clark put the rest of the WNBA on notice as she returned to the Indiana Fever lineup with a vengeance and upended the New York Liberty’s undefeated streak on Saturday night. Clark’s 32-point victory in the 102-88 win gave Indiana its fifth win of the season. Clark made seven 3-pointers, including three in a 38-second span that even shocked former Liberty star Rebecca Lobo. The Basketball Hall of Famer talked about Clark’s performance and what she means to WNBA viewership as the league saw numbers dwindle a bit in her absence. "It means a lot more people are paying...

    The WNBA continues to deny OutKick a credential to cover Atlanta Dream games. The team and league claim they can't accommodate our requests due to "very limited space." We appreciate the emphasis on "very." Still, no one actually believes the WNBA can't find the "space" for us to cover a regular-season game involving the Dream and Connecticut Sun. WNBA games in June are hardly the Super Bowl, where reporters from all across the country clamor for access. In fact, the Sun granted several media credentials to OutKick last year, including a playoff game featuring the Indiana Fever and Caitlin Clark....

    On May 18, the WNBA released a statement announcing an investigation into alleged fan misconduct that occurred during the May 17 game between the Chicago Sky and the Indiana Fever, which took place in Indiana's Gainbridge Fieldhouse arena. Front Office Sports' Annie Costabile reposted the WNBA's initial statement and added, "Sources with knowledge of the situation say this statement is in response to allegations of racial comments directed at Angel Reese by fan(s) in the crowd."

    After the game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, it was alleged that Angel Reese had been subjected to hate speech and racist slurs. The league hardly waited a minute to announce a closer look into the matter. “The WNBA strongly condemns racism, hate, and discrimination in all forms — they have no place in our league or in society,” the statement had declared. So the investigation took off with information gathering from the fans, team members, and staff who were present at the game. Being a game televised by ABC, there were microphones right by the bench and even more cameras than...

    Breaking records has become as routine as free throws for Caitlin Clark. The star Indiana Fever guard and face of the WNBA is just two games into her second season, but is already seeing more records fall with her instantly strong performance to start off the season. Clark opened up the season in midseason form with a 20-point, 10-assist, 10-rebound triple-double in a dominant 93-58 win over the Chicago Sky. Then, in her second game of the year, Clark once again filled up the stat sheet on her way to breaking a record. Against the Atlanta Dream, which saw the...

    Angel Reese ratcheted up her feud with Caitlin Clark on Tuesday as she re-posted a TikTok trolling her 'white girl' rival. The pair clashed over the weekend, as Clark was assessed a flagrant foul for slapping across Reese's arm and ultimately sending her to the ground. An incensed Reese then beelined for Clark when she got up before others intervened to keep them separated. And while Reese later said the foul from Clark was a 'basketball play,' she's evidently still thinking about the moment, as she re-posted a video insulting Clark.

    Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark says it was too loud inside Gainbridge Fieldhouse for her to hear racial comments from fans directed at Angel Reese during Saturday’s season-opening 93-58 victory over the Chicago Sky and that she supports the WNBA’s investigation. A person familiar with the situation confirmed the details to The Associated Press on Sunday on condition of anonymity because the league had not publicly identified the subject of the taunts or who made the allegations. Reese, who is Black, and Clark, who is white, met for the seventh time in their ongoing — and much-talked-about — rivalry. Clark...
