Behind the 2024 Time Athlete of the Year, Indiana was also the most-watched WNBA team. It sold out games in different cities, even prompting some teams to move their matchup against the Fever to bigger arenas.<\/p>\n<p>This offseason, Indiana was aggressive in surrounding Clark with talent and championship experience. The team re-signed guard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/us\/wnba\/kelsey-mitchell\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Kelsey Mitchell<\/a> after giving her a core player designation. Mitchell formed a lethal backcourt combination with Clark.<\/p>\n<p>The Fever also added former WNBA champions DeWanna Bonner and Natasha Howard to beef up its frontcourt alongside 2023 No. 1 pick Aliyah Boston. The veterans will add much-needed experience to the squad next season, as the team was criticized for being inexperienced in the postseason.<\/p>\n<p>Indiana also acquired Sophie Cunningham, a threat from distance because of her 3-point shooting.<\/p>\n<p>So far, these players are solid additions for Indiana. It remains to be seen if there are still roster moves for Caitlin Clark-led Fever this offseason.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more: <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/us\/wnba\/news-ponytail-brigade-overtake-wnba-jason-whitlock-doubles-caitlin-clark-s-exciting-whites-trio-winning-title-fever\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">&#8220;Ponytail brigade is about to overtake WNBA&#8221; &#8211; Jason Whitlock says &#8220;exciting white trio&#8221; led by Caitlin Clark could win title for Fever<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tag-cloud\">\n<div class=\"tags-text\">\n<div class=\"scrollable-content-holder  article-padding\">\n<p class=\"article-p  \">Quick Links<\/p>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerLeft\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Left \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"background: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-left.svg\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button><\/p>\n<nav id=\"pnProductNav\" class=\"pn-ProductNav\">\n<\/nav>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerRight\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Right \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"background: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-right.svg\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<p>More from Sportskeeda<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<span class=\"publisher-name\">Edited by Kim Daniel Rubinos<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script> \nvar fbPixelFired = false;\nvar pixelID = \"952063904834769\";\ndocument.addEventListener(\"scroll\", loadFBPixel, { once: true, passive: true });\ndocument.addEventListener(\"mousemove\", loadFBPixel, { once: true, passive: true });\nfunction loadFBPixel() {\nif(fbPixelFired) {\nreturn;\n}\nfbPixelFired = true;\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod? \nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, \ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', pixelID); \nfbq('track', \"PageView\");\nfbq('track', 'ViewContent');\ndocument.removeEventListener(\"scroll\", loadFBPixel);\ndocument.removeEventListener(\"mousemove\", loadFBPixel);\n}\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/us\/wnba\/news-caitlin-clark-fired-obi-toppin-pacers-teammates-repping-fever-gear-ahead-knicks-matchup\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark was hyped as the Indiana Pacers sported WNBA gear, including Fever-themed shirts.
