"But I think everybody's thankful we've got some really great veterans who've won before and then we got some people back and Steph's (Indiana Fever coach Stephanie White) amazing and our staff, so should be a great season."
Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever have one more preseason game remaining before they tip off their 2025 campaign against the Chicago Sky on May 17.
