Indiana Fever's Top Games to Watch this WNBA Season

May 14 - vs. Connecticut Sun, 7:30 pm ET (ESPN2)

This is the WNBA season opener. Clark’s debut will air on national TV against a solid Connecticut Sun team. All eyes will be on the debutant as she takes her first step in the pro game.

May 16 - vs. New York Liberty, 7 pm ET (Prime Video)

This will be the first matchup against Eastern Conference giants New York Liberty. Clark will go up against MVP Breanna Stewart and superstar Sabrina Ionescu for the first time. It should be a great shooting matchup between the two guards.

May 24 - vs. LA Sparks, 10 pm ET (ION)

Clark will go head-to-head with No. 2 pick Cameron Brink. The two lead the loaded class of young stars in the league. The Sparks also have No. 4 pick Rickea Jackson in a game that will be loaded with rookie stars.

June 16 - vs. Chicago Sky, 12 pm ET (CBS)

Circle this one as Caitlin Clark takes on Angel Reese on national TV. The two stars were huge rivals in college during their days at Iowa and LSU. It also gives Clark a chance at revenge against No. 3 pick Kamilla Cardoso who beat Clark and Iowa in the national championship with South Carolina.

June 30 - vs. Phoenix Mercury, 3 pm ET (ESPN)

Another game on national TV for Clark and her Fever brigade. It will also be the first time Clark will take on the G.O.A.T. Diana Taurasi. Taurasi reportedly talked trash directed at Clark during draft coverage and will be eager to put the young star under pressure.

July 2 - vs Las Vegas Aces, 9:30 pm ET (ESPN)

This is a marquee matchup as Caitlin Clark takes on the two-time defending champion Aces. This one is also on national TV and will be played after the NBA Finals are over. The game is expected to attract a lot of viewership for the WNBA.
