Caitlin Clark Says She's 100% Healthy as Fever Open Camp With Managed Workload

Aliyah Boston’s record EPIC extension positions Indiana to ease Clark’s ramp-up now and plan bigger deals later.

Overview

  • Caitlin Clark, who missed most of 2025 with quad, groin and ankle injuries, said Sunday she is 100% healthy as Indiana opened training camp, with coach Stephanie White limiting early practice reps.
  • Clark used March’s Team USA World Cup qualifying games to regain rhythm, logging competitive minutes before the Fever’s preseason begins later this month.
  • Indiana kept its core and added depth, re-signing Kelsey Mitchell, Lexie Hull and Sophie Cunningham and bringing in Tyasha Harris, Myisha Hines-Allen and Monique Billings, plus first-round rookie Raven Johnson.
  • Aliyah Boston signed a four-year, $6.3 million extension using the new EPIC rule, which lets top young players secure larger, earlier extensions and gives teams more time to plan the cap.
  • Sophie Cunningham said her one-year, $665,000 deal felt frustrating, then clarified Tuesday that she wanted more years rather than more money, as GM Amber Cox emphasized long-term plans for Clark and Boston under EPIC.
