After playing in just 13 games in the 2025 season, Caitlin Clark was eager to be back on the floor. She worked hard during the rehab process and even shone in USA basketball games, proving her fitness and eagerness to be back on the floor. The player had ‘unfinished business’ and wanted her 2025 team back together to complete the same.
Clark mentioned Kelsey Mitchel as a priority for the Indiana Fever and also added Sophie Cunningham’s name on a timely basis, making sure that she gets her favorite teammates on the roster. While the franchise put together nearly the entire 2025 roster, CC gave a shout-out to everyone’s return and now a special mention for Cunningham, too.
Caitlin Clark Shows Excitement Over Sophie Cunningham’s Return
With the Fever team having only three players under contract, there were many spots to fill. The franchise prioritized its signings and added them one by one, keeping one eye on the salary cap as well. The team strategically signed a few players to one-year contracts, including Sophie Cunningham and Kelsey Mitchell, with Ailyah Boston’s contract up for renewal in the 2027 season.
Amid this, keeping the commercials aside, the 2024 rookie showed love for Cunningham’s arrival and shared the Fever’s post on her Instagram story.
