Caitlin Clark and Sydney Colson move the WNBA: unseen photos touch Indiana Fever fans

SPORTIVO
Article arrow_drop_down

The first quarter of the matchup between Indiana Fever and Phoenix Mercury delivered one of the most painful scenes of the season. Sydney Colson, a 36-year-old point guard and one of the WNBA’s most beloved veterans, collapsed without contact near the Fever bench and limped off, unable to put weight on her left leg. Her teammates and medical staff quickly assisted her, but the news was devastating: a torn anterior cruciate ligament.

The injury came at the worst possible time for the team. Colson joined Caitlin Clark on the injury list, leaving Fever without its two main point guards midway through the season. Beyond the sport, the bond between the two players had become very special, and that was evident in the latest images shared on social media.

Clark and Boston’s ritual hits different without her

Indiana Fever fans are moved

Sports photographer Bri Lewerke published a never-before-seen photo set showing Caitlin Clark laughing heartily alongside Sydney Colson, known in the league as “the funniest player” thanks to her stand-up comedy side. In another image, Colson hugs Clark tightly-a gesture that now carries even deeper meaning amid their injuries.

Indiana Fever fans didn’t take long to react. Social media was flooded with messages full of emotion, nostalgia, and affection for two players who, despite adversity, keep the team’s spirit alive.

Caitlin Clark and a veteran champion

Before the 2025 season began, Clark was clear about her goal: winning a championship. To reach that goal, having a mentor like Colson was invaluable. The veteran, a two-time champion with the Las Vegas Aces, brought experience, leadership, and a unique perspective to help the young star navigate the challenges of the WNBA.

“A championship,” Clark had said firmly. And with Colson by her side, fans felt Fever had the formula to achieve it. That’s why these photos are so meaningful: they represent what could have been-and what they still hope to build together.

Indiana Fever fans hold on to hope

Reactions came quickly. “The veteran she needed and deserved,” wrote one fan, highlighting the chemistry between Clark and Colson at a time when not all league veterans have embraced the young star. Another fan left a direct comment: “Of course! Way to make us cry.”

The emotional blow has been tough: Fever lost Colson, Aari McDonald, and Sophie Cunningham in just a few weeks. Even so, the group’s unity remains intact, as shown in the comeback against Connecticut Sun, where coach Stephanie White couldn’t hold back tears.

The value of Sydney Colson

Fans adore Colson’s energy. Her sense of humor, spontaneous gestures, and the way she lifts the team even from the bench have been a balm in a season full of obstacles. “I want a post with all of Sydney Colson’s facial expressions,” one fan wrote with laughter, reflecting how much her presence means.

Today, as Indiana Fever weathers a storm of injuries, these photos serve as a reminder of the heart and resilience that keep the team together. As Caitlin Clark wrote when sharing them: “At least we love each other infinitely.”

ACC expert picks 2025: Most overrated and underrated teams, projected order of finish, bold predictions

The first season of a 17-team ACC produced multiple bids to the College Football Playoff in 2024 and an apparent return of Clemson as the team to beat in the conference. It sets the stage for an action-packed season in 2025, as Dabo Swinney's program looks to entrench its position in the league and challenge themselves to be a national-title contender again.Syracuse took down Miami on the final week of the regular season to propel Clemson into the ACC Championship Game, where a walk-off field goal vs. SMU handed the Tigers their eighth conference title since 2015. The runner-up Mustangs still made the College Football Playoff as an at-large team, solidifying one of the most impressive conference debuts we've seen in the modern era. After going 8-0 in ACC play, SMU has cemented itself as a top-tier program in the […]
