Caitlin Clark returns to Iowa: Where can you have Hawkeyes legend, Indiana Fever against Brazil in 2025 WNBA pre -season

Training camps for all WNBA teams were opened last week, and soon the previous season games will be underway. One of the most expected inclinations in the pre -season, not only this season, but in the history of the league, takes place on Sunday when Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever return to Iowa to achieve a matchup with the Brazilian national team.

This will be Clark's first game in Iowa City since graduation last year and is part of the growing trend of the WNBA teams that return to the campus of their Star Player College for pre -season games. Of course, Clark put up countless records during her school and led the Hawkeyes to successive national championship games.

What the players say

“I'm very excited. It should be fun. I can't believe it is already there,” said Clark on Wednesday on the fever's media day. “To be honest, I was no longer in Iowa City since I left a year ago. Only a few times back, once for a football game and once for my retirement from Jersey. So it will be fun to return there.

“I warned everyone, there is no air conditioning in Carver-Hawkeye [Arena]. Usually they don't play basketball games in May, so hopefully it stays a bit cool there. I don't know what the air humidity looks like, but we will see how to do it could be a little roasted. “

Why the game counts

This is a pre -season game and not even a different WNBA team, so the result is irrelevant. However, the fever made a number of changes on and next to the square this winter, and this will be one of the first time to see the new group in action. (You will play your first pre -season game against Washington Mystics on Saturday).

Stephanie White was hired as a new trainer, while veterans such as Dewanna Bonner, Natasha Howard and Sophie Cunningham were brought with them to offer the team an urgently needed experience and defensive skills. We will see how all these new pieces match the young core of the fever of Clark, Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell.

Clark's return to Iowa, where she is revered, is certainly a spectacle.
