Brea Beal broke the news herself, stating on Twitter/X:
“I wanted to break the news first and let you guys know that I was waived from the Aces today.”

WNBA comes out with genius marketing move ahead of Caitlin Clark’s preseason debut
The WNBA has done a great job with their latest marketing move to draw fan engagement for League Pass. Clark is set to make her debut for the Indiana Fever on May 3 in a preseason game against the Dallas Wings.
Ahead of the game, it was announced that both of the Indiana Fever’s preseason games would be available to stream for free on the WNBA app. Clearly, the league is looking to capitalize on the interest Clark is drawing from the fans.
As fans get to watch Caitlin Clark play for free through the WNBA app in the preseason, it will lay down a perfect promotion for their League Pass. Viewers will need to subscribe to the service to continue watching the regular season.
Interestingly, the WNBA rookie believes this is just the beginning, and she’s looking forward to her first season with the Fever. She said:
“I think there's gonna be a lot of new fans coming to the WNBA; there’s already a lot of fans here and just continue to grow that.”
That said, a lot is expected of Clark going into her first season. It remains to be seen how her debut WNBA season plays out, starting with the preseason from May 3.
