The Indiana Fever and head coach Christie Sides head into March with a pretty clear path to the 2024 season. After adding Katie Lou Samuelson to the starting lineup, and Damiris Dantas as a vital backup big to Aliyah Boston and NaLyssa Smith, all they need is a lead guard to pair with Kelsey Mitchell who can shoot it from anywhere and distribute. (If only Caitlin Clark had declared for the WNBA Dra-oh wait.) Host Howard Megdal and Sides talk about Caitlin Clark without talking about Caitlin Clark, along with the many reasons to be excited for the Fever, and how Sides herself approaches March Madness.

I give Iowa coach Bluder much credit for letting CC be CC with the logo 3’s. Hopefully Sides won’t change that. Her teammates are going to LOVE her elite passing ability too. This Iowan is about to become a HUGE Fever fan! ❤🎉

CC led Iowa to the championship game twice literally out of nowhere. I do believe she needs to improve areas of her game, she is a hard worker of course, I just hope she prioritizes her weaknesses, and adds to her toolbox. Indiana will most likely draft her we will know soon enough. JP

Ironic how Sides say that the next step for Fever development is to be able to knock down the 3 point shot and bamm! Look who is there for them. I don't know if she let the cat out of the bag but talk about being an Oracle with when she made that interview. Be ready for 14 million viewers and a packed stadium. Perhaps make a signing session with young girls ala Taylor Swift. Nike should prepare a new shoes to be used and signed away. Make-a-wish should set up a permanent office in Indiana.

You can tell she was reading a script prepared by the owner and the PR team. She wanted Reese, not Clark and hasn't been overly excited about CC since she arrived.

I think it's a lock Indiana drafts Caitlin. The only scenario where they don't draft her, in my opinion, is if she suffers a major injury during the NCAA tournament.

@Raindeux 2 ай бұрын

@@dougpettepier2818 Even if she gets a season ending injury, Fever still draft her just to lock her up for next year. The $$$ is too much to let her go anywhere else, for any reason.

Cheryl Reeve said it best when commenting on possible trade calls for the number 1 pick from Indiana....."How do I say this?'' she said. And then: "Not a chance ... People are going to say, 'Sell the farm to get her.' Well, the farm ain't going to be enough to get her."
