The Indiana Fever are entering the 2025 season with more confidence, and muscle, than ever, thanks in large part to Caitlin Clark’s noticeable physical transformation. Her teammate Aliyah Boston, the 2023 Rookie of the Year, isn’t holding back her admiration.
During media day, Boston highlighted Clark’s increased strength as a game-changer. “People always talk about her shooting, but her ability to finish through contact is what stands out to me this year,” Boston said. “She’s getting to the paint, taking hits, and still scoring. It’s impressive.”
Caitlin Clark discovers she’s being secretly filmed and reacts with suspicion and disarming charm
Social media was abuzz in March when new photos of Clark went viral, showing off her enhanced physique. According to Her Hoop Stats, Clark converted 62% of her shots within five feet last season, and that number could rise even more now that she’s physically stronger and more aggressive around the rim.
A rising core with title ambitions
While Indiana made key offseason acquisitions in Natasha Howard and DeWanna Bonner, the real growth may come from within. The core trio of Clark, Boston, and Kelsey Mitchell is being touted as the foundation for a deep playoff run.
Boston, who averaged 14 points and 8.9 rebounds in 2024, is coming off her second straight All-Star appearance and has also expanded her game as a passer. “It’s all about evolving,” Boston said. “We all bring different things to the floor, and now we’re learning how to blend that together.”
Clark, known primarily for her deep shooting, led the league with 355 three-point attempts in her rookie year and averaged 19.2 points per game. But with her improved interior play, she’s no longer just a perimeter threat.
The road to a comeback season
The Fever finished last season at 20-20 and narrowly made the playoffs, but this year’s goal is much bigger. The franchise hasn’t reached the WNBA Finals in a decade, and with the momentum behind their young stars, that drought could finally end.
Indiana kicks off its preseason on May 3 and will open the regular season on May 17 against Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky, another rookie sensation making waves.
With a stronger, sharper Caitlin Clark and a confident, dominant Aliyah Boston leading the way, the Fever’s title hopes suddenly look very real.

Trénuje v Česku, vládne světu. Japonku z Domažlic čeká v Tokiu šílenství
Křišťálové trofeje ze Zlaté tretry nemusí vozit domů přes půlku světa, jen téměř na druhý konec republiky. Zatím má doma dvě, v úterý bude usilovat o třetí. „Chtěla bych ji získat. Doufám, že hodím ještě dál než v Oslu,“ hlásí Kitagučiová, která v norské metropoli ovládla Diamantovou ligu výkonem 64,63 m.V souboji s mladou Srbkou Adrianou Vilagošovou, který si v Ostravě zopakuje. „To je dobře, potřebuju silné soupeřky,“ vypráví usměvavá Japonka češtinou, než po chvíli raději přejde do angličtiny. Po Zlaté tretře se hned přesune do své rodné země na národní šampionát, pak se vrátí do Domažlic. Další cesta do Asie už přijde před mistrovstvím světa.Počítá, že při vrcholu sezony v Tokiu na ní budou upřeny oči desetitisíců fanoušků, kteří si budou chtít vynahradit, že na covidové olympiádě na Národní stadion nemohli. „Doufám, že bude plný. Je pravda, že po olympiádě mě v Japonsku víc lidí zná a fandí mi,“ […]
Juan Soto makes history with two home runs to help Mets snap seven-game losing streak
Getty Images The Mets grabbed a much-needed win in Philadelphia Saturday night, 11-4, snapping their seven-game losing streak and again tying the Phillies atop the NL East. Brandon Nimmo homered twice for the Mets while Francisco Lindor and Francisco Alvarez added home runs of their own, but the headline here on an individual basis belongs to Juan Soto. He went 4 for 5 and homered twice with the second one being an upper-tank beauty to provide the Mets with some breathing room.Soto now has 16 homers and 39 RBI this season. He's hitting .256/.393/.484 on the season. This was actually his third two-homer game in 2025 and that runs his tally to 26 in his career. This ties Hall of Famer Jimmie Foxx for the most ever by a player before turning 27 years old, according to MLB.com. Soto turns 27 on Oct. […]
