Caitlin Clark also shared her progress with the team’s new coach for player development, and getting to work with DeWanna Boonner.

“My ability to work out with Keith [Porter] all offseason has been really fun, got to work out with DB.”

DeWanna Bonner’s move to the Indiana Fever has been a significant one for both her and the team. After spending five seasons with the Connecticut Sun, where she helped the team reach the WNBA Finals in 2022, Bonner decided it was time for a change.
