An Epochal Open Letter from Point Guard Caitlin Clark to the Indiana Fever, Fans, and the Entire Indiana Community
To the Indiana Fever organization, the incredible fans, and the entire Indiana community:
As I reflect on my first year in the WNBA and with the Indiana Fever, I am overwhelmed with gratitude. This past year has been nothing short of transformational—not just in my career, but in my life. And that’s because of you.
From day one, you embraced me. You didn’t just cheer for me—you believed in me, supported me, and gave me the space and encouragement to grow. That’s something I’ll never take for granted.
To the Indiana Fever organization—thank you for trusting in me, drafting me, and believing in my potential. This team has given me the opportunity to learn from incredible teammates, work with a dedicated coaching staff, and represent a franchise built on resilience, integrity, and passion for the game. Every time I put on the Fever jersey, I feel a sense of pride and responsibility to honor this legacy.
To our amazing fans—your support has been everything. From the packed stands at Gainbridge Fieldhouse to the countless messages on social media and the high-fives on the street—you’ve made Indiana feel like home. Whether we’re winning or learning, you’ve stood by us. Your energy is unmatched. Your love is real. And I carry that with me every time I step on the court.
To the greater Indiana community—thank you for your warmth, your encouragement, and your belief in what women’s basketball can be. Indiana has always been a basketball state, but being here has shown me it’s also a place of heart, unity, and deep appreciation for the game’s power to bring people together.
This season hasn’t been without challenges, but every moment—good or tough—has helped shape me. I’ve learned, grown, and pushed myself in ways I never imagined. That growth wouldn’t have been possible without an environment that supports and uplifts, and that’s exactly what Indiana has given me.
To every young girl watching, dreaming, and believing: keep going. You belong in these spaces. You deserve to be seen, heard, and celebrated.
Thank you, Indiana—for being more than a place to play. Thank you for being a home, a community, and a source of strength. I’m honored to wear this jersey, represent this state, and grow with all of you.
We’re building something special here. And this is just the beginning.
With love and gratitude,
Caitlin Clark
