Just ahead of the WNBA All‑Star break, the Indiana Fever find themselves perched above .500 at 11-10, sitting third in the Eastern Conference.

Their mid‑season surge has been fueled by a franchise‑record 64 points in a single half on Sunday against the Dallas Wings and by securing the Commissioner's Cup title on July 1 with a 74-59 victory over the Minnesota Lynx.

Fever coach Stephanie White has guided her squad through peaks and valleys, but it’s their recent home‑court success that has fans buzzing as they head into All‑Star Weekend.

Adding to the hype, the WNBA announced on Tuesday that Fever star guard Caitlin Clark will make her professional debut in the 2025 WNBA STARRY 3‑Point Contest on Friday at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

The Fever took to X to celebrate Clark's moment shortly after, posting with the message, "HEAT CHECK repping the home team, Caitlin Clark is locked in for the 2025 WNBA STARRY 3-Point Contest at #WNBAAllStar2025! ."

As the NCAA’s all‑time Division I leading scorer and a two‑time national player of the year, Clark entered the WNBA in 2024 with immense expectations.

Clark immediately lived up to the hype, capturing the WNBA Rookie of the Year award, leading the league in assists, earning All‑WNBA First Team honors and becoming an All-Star in her first year in Indiana.

This season, Clark has continued to impress with averages of 16.7 points, 9.0 assists and 4.8 rebounds per game over 12 contests, while adding 1.7 steals per night.

Clark’s entry into the 3‑Point Contest marks her first appearance in the league’s long‑standing shootout and she’ll line up against defending champ Allisha Gray, 3-point event record-holder Sabrina Ionescu, rising rookie Sonia Citron and WNBA veteran Kelsey Plum.

Having their star guard in a signature All‑Star event on Indiana soil only elevates anticipation for the weekend among Fever fans and the franchise
