Indiana Fever Announce Big Caitlin Clark News on Sunday

Originally posted on Athlon Sports | By Cole Sullivan | Last updated Jun 29, 2025 4:53 PM ET

Indiana Fever point guard Caitlin Clark has had an eventful sophomore campaign through the team’s first 16 games of the WNBA season.

She’s missed several of those contests due to injuries—sidelined for five games with a quad strain and the last two with a groin issue.

Still, when on the court, Clark has been nothing short of dominant, averaging 18.2 points, 8.9 assists, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.6 steals per game. Her stellar play led to a major announcement on Sunday from the WNBA and the Fever.

Clark has officially been named a captain for the 2024 WNBA All-Star Game, which will take place in Indianapolis on July 19. She’ll be joined by Minnesota Lynx star Napheesa Collier as the other captain, with the pair set to draft their respective teams—similar to the NBA's recent All-Star format.

"captain CC," Fever posted. "Caitlin Clark is a #WNBAAllStar2025 captain and two-time All-Star."

According to Fever reporter Scott Agness, Caitlin Clark led all WNBA players in All-Star voting with an impressive 1,293,526 votes. Right behind her was fellow captain Napheesa Collier, who received 1,176,020 votes.

Clark and Collier will select their teams on July 8, with the All-Star reserves—chosen by WNBA head coaches—set to be revealed Monday night at 7 p.m. ET.

As the Fever noted, Clark is now two-for-two in All-Star selections to begin her WNBA career. This year’s honor is particularly special, as the 2024 WNBA All-Star Game will take place at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

Clark remains day-to-day with a groin injury, and the hope is she’ll return to action Tuesday night against the Minnesota Lynx with the Commissioner’s Cup on the line. If she’s unable to go, her next opportunity will be Thursday against the defending champion Las Vegas Aces.
