Breaking: Unforeseen Updates on Caitlin Clark, Lakers, and Warriors
The WNBA has found its answer.
For years, the league has struggled with marketing, but Caitlin Clark has become a worldwide sensation. The Indiana Fever selected Clark as the first overall pick in the 2024 draft, and the WNBA is maximizing the presence of its newest star.
The league recently unveiled its television schedule for the 2025 season, ensuring Clark and the Fever receive maximum exposure. An unprecedented 41 of the Fever’s 44 games will be nationally televised, setting a new WNBA record for the most nationally broadcast games by a single team in a season.
Via Indiana Fever: “All eyes on us.
🔥 41 of our 44 games on national TV
🔥 Most national TV games in franchise history
🔥 Most national TV games for a single team in WNBA history”
While breaking the WNBA record was expected, the Fever have also surpassed the NBA.
Clark and the Fever will appear on national TV more than any NBA team, including major franchises like the Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors, Boston Celtics, and New York Knicks.
Via Legion Hoops: “Caitlin Clark will have more nationally televised games this season than the top-viewed NBA teams.
Fever – (41 games)
Lakers – (39 games)
Warriors – (36 games)
Celtics/Knicks – (34 games)
Mavericks – (30 games)
The Caitlin Clark effect has reached new heights.”
Clark’s influence continues to soar. Not only will she lead all basketball teams in national TV appearances, but some opposing WNBA teams are moving their games to larger venues to accommodate the overwhelming demand from fans eager to watch her play.
Surpassing teams like the Lakers and Warriors, two of the biggest names in sports, is a remarkable achievement and a testament too Clark’s growing stardom.
