Unrivaled, the upcoming 3v3 league, has unveiled its six teams with 34 confirmed players so far. Chicago Sky forward <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/angel-reese">Angel Reese</a> will team up with Indiana Fever’s guard Lexie Hull, who is, of course, a good friend of Caitlin Clark.



Reese and Hull are part of the Rose Basketball Club, which also includes Las Vegas Aces point guard Chelsea Gray, Phoenix Mercury guard Kahleah Copper, Washington Mystics guard Brittney Sykes and Los Angeles Sparks forward Azura Stevens.



The Chicago Sky star reacted to the news by sharing a rose emoji on X (formerly known as Twitter), and then replying to some of her new teammates’ messages, from Copper and Gray.

Reese, who had to end her season early due to a wrist injury, averaged a double-double with 13.6 points and a league-leading 13.1 rebounds per game. She also broke the WNBA record for most consecutive double-doubles, surpassing former Los Angeles Sparks star Candace Parker.

Unrivaled, the upcoming 3v3 league, has finally unveiled its six teams with 34 confirmed players so far. With only two spots left, there is speculation that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/indiana-fever">Indiana Fever</a> star Caitlin Clark could join. However, according to ESPN, she won’t be in Miami next year.



Michael Voepel reports that Clark won’t play in the new league, according to a source with knowledge of the situation. Previously, Indy Star reported that “Clark will be taking some much-needed time off, spending time training in Indianapolis, visiting family in Iowa and going on vacation.”



The Fever guard played coy when asked about it last week as she took part in the pro-am golf event at The Annika, saying that “We’ll see.” According to reports, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/caitlin-clark">Clark</a> received a “Lionel Messi like-offer,” with a $1 million salary and other benefits.



However, that doesn’t mean that she won’t be seen during the rest of the offseason. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/wnba/indiana-fever-star-caitlin-clark-books-new-event-amid-wnba-offseason">Clark has been booked as a guest speaker for a women’s sports awards</a> luncheon in Kansas City on Feb. 4 at T-Mobile Center. It is one of the largest events in the country celebrating National Girls and Women in Sports Day.

Clark also has plans to work on her game during the offseason. “Besides the actual basketball skill part of it, I think getting stronger is my focus,” she said when asked about her offseason goals during the LPGA pro-am event. “I’m spending a lot of time in the weight room, just building that strength.”

<h2>Unrivaled isn’t short on star power</h2>



Despite Clark’s absence in the league co-founded by Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier, who are also playing, Unrivaled has plenty of interesting talent to showcase. One of them is Chicago Sky’s forward Angel Reese, who was one of the first players to confirm her participation.



Meanwhile, Aliyah Boston and Lexie Hull, both Clark’s teammates in the Fever, are also part of the league. All of Unrivaled’s games will be played in Miami, beginning Jan. 17. The league will last eight weeks, and it will be aired on TNT and streamed on Max.

Caitlin Clark is making the most of her <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/wnba">WNBA</a> offseason. The Indiana Fever star has added another commitment to her schedule after attending the LPGA Women’s Leadership Summit and playing in The ANNIKA pro-am golf event.



The Fever guard will be featured as a speaker in the 2025 Women’s Sports Awards in Kansas City. The event is organized by WIN for KC, Kansas City’s local nonprofit working to empower women and girls through sports.



The event is scheduled for Feb. 4, 2025, at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, Mo. “Sports have played a pivotal role in my life, helping develop critical skills like teamwork, resiliency and confidence that serve me on and off the court,” <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/caitlin-clark">Clark</a> said of the event in a statement, according to FOX4KC.



“WIN for KC are incredible champions for creating opportunity for girls and women through sports, and I’m excited to join them to celebrate those that are making an impact,” she concluded.

Apart from her offseason activities, Clark has remained making headlines as she has been spotted at different sporting events, especially supporting Indiana teams. She has also been seen with Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton.



Following a historic rookie season that earned her Rookie of the Year and a First-Team All-WNBA spot, Clark is now focused on bringing a championship to her team, which is now being coached by Stephanie White.

Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark books new event amid WNBA offseason - Bolavip US

During her rookie WNBA season, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/caitlin-clark">Caitlin Clark</a> became one of the most talked about athletes in the US. Apart from breaking several records, such as most assists in a single season, she won the Rookie of the Year award and helped the Indiana Fever reach the playoffs. Now, her impact has been celebrated with a tribute video on Fox, in which several young players, such as sensation Paige Bueckers send warming messages to Clark.



When asked about Clark’s influence on women’s basketball, Bueckers expressed admiration: “Caitlin brought so much new attention to the rise of women’s college basketball and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/wnba">WNBA</a> and women’s sports in general. I feel like the weight of the world is on her shoulders. And she just has this heavy burden to carry and she does it with grace and humility.”



Both players have faced their share of challenges, and Bueckers understands the pressure that comes with being a highly touted prospect. She previously stated, “I think it’s more important for the game to share the spotlight… I honestly hope next year I’m not the focal point and the only person that gets attention. I hope as media, as players, we can spread the love a little bit more.”



Bueckers, the projected No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft, will likely join the Dallas Wings after Sunday’s lottery results. Known for her efficient shooting and dynamic playmaking, the UConn star is poised to make an immediate impact in the league.

<h2>Paige Bueckers is a rising star</h2>



Paige Bueckers, a rising star from Minnesota, has taken the college basketball world by storm since her freshman year at UConn. She made history as the first freshman to sweep all major national player of the year awards.



Despite facing significant setbacks from knee injuries during her sophomore and junior seasons, Bueckers has consistently led the Huskies to the Final Four in every year she’s been healthy, including a championship game appearance in 2022. Her incredible scoring average of 19.9 points per game is on track to break Maya Moore’s program record.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/wnba">WNBA</a> offseason has seen the emergence of Unrivaled, a groundbreaking 3v3 league co-founded by Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier. The league is slated to begin play in January 2025 with 36 players. Only two spots are left, after two players from the Atlanta Dream and Los Angeles Sparks have joined the project.



Dream’s guard Jordin Canada was the 34th player to be announced. She averaged 10.6 points, 5.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.6 steals this past season, and is one of the best guard defenders in the league. She joins her teammates Allisha Gray and Rhyne Howard.



Meanwhile, 24-year-old Rae Burrell has also signed with Unrivaled. The Los Angeles Sparks guard averaged 5.9 points and 1.8 rebounds in 15.6 minutes per game this past season. She joined the franchise after being drafted out of Tennessee with the No. 9 pick in 2022.



Burell is the fourth Sparks player to sign with Unrivaled, joining Azura Stevens, Dearica Hamby, and Rickea Jackson. Other WNBA talents that have joined the inaugural season of Unrivaled include Chicago Sky’s Angel Reese, and Indiana Fever’s Aliyah Boston, among many others.

Stewart and Collier co-founded the league with the idea of focusing on player development. Apart from lucrative salaries, the players will have the opportunity to stay home during the WNBA offseason instead of playing overseas.


 


<h2>How Unrivaled will work</h2>



Unrivaled will consist of 36 players divided into six teams, competing in a 3v3 format. During the first six weeks, they will play a round-robin format before the top four advance to a two-week postseason. A season-long 1v1 tournament will also take place during the season.



On November 20th, the teams will be announced. Collier explained on X that a selection committee will allocate players based on skill and position. The first season will officially start on January 17, 2025 and it will be held in Miami, Florida.

Indiana Fever new head coach Stephanie White didn’t hold back when discussing her team’s ambitions for the upcoming <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/wnba">WNBA</a> season, echoing the words of star Caitlin Clark. After the franchise landed their first playoff berth since 2016 last season, they want more.



In an interview with The Fan – Indianapolis, White was asked what is the next level for the Fever. “It’s competing for championships,” she said. “The expectation was always to be competing for championships, and I think now we have an opportunity again to be doing that.”



Repeating her words from her presentation, White assured that, while the changes won’t happen overnight, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/indiana-fever">Fever</a> can build a strong team with Aliyah Boston, “probably the best center that we’ve seen in our league,” and Clark, “a generational talent,” as the backbone.



“You think about building around those two, championship is the expectation. You compete for championships year in and year out,” she said. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/caitlin-clark">Clark</a>, on the other hand, had shared similar thoughts during her participation in the pro-am golf event at The Annika a few days ago.

“Our goal last year was to reach the playoffs, and we accomplished that, but now we want to be championship contenders,” Clark told reporters. “I think we’re putting the pieces together to make that happen—hopefully adding some free agents. You can feel the excitement throughout the organization, the city, and our fans. I can’t wait to get back out there. Honestly, I wish we had a game tomorrow.”

<h2>A new era for the Indiana Fever </h2>



The Indiana Fever are undergoing a significant transformation. Apart from White’s return as a head coach, the franchise has new leadership in president Kelly Krauskopf and general manager Amber Cox. So, it would be interesting to see which players join the team.



Apart from Boston and Clark, Fever has enjoyed the talents of guards Lexie Hull, one of Clark’s best friends, and Kelsey Mitchell. However, Mitchell is entering the free agency period and there’s a lot of questions about her future, despite Fever’s desire of re-signing her.

The Dallas Wings landed the No. 1 pick after the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/wnba">WNBA</a> Draft Lottery, which they are expected to use on coveted UConn guard Paige Bueckers. Minutes after the announcement, Wings guard Arike Ogunbowale reacted on X to the news with excitement.



“I just fell to my knees. THANK YOU LORD!” she wrote on the platform, earning over 1.6 reposts and more than 7.8 likes. Her excitement comes after the Wings weren’t expected to land the No. 1 pick, as the Los Angeles Sparks, who will have the second pick, have a worst record in the past two seasons.



However, Ogunbowale wasn’t the only Wings player to share their happiness over the news. Wings forward Maddy Siegrist, who was representing the franchise in the draft, said that they were “super excited” as “we’ve seen how impactful lottery picks have been, especially the past few seasons.”



The Indiana Fever landed the last two No. 1 picks in Aliyah Boston and Caitlin Clark, and both won WNBA Rookie of the Year. The Fever also landed their first playoffs spot since 2016, and are now set to be coached by Stephanie White.

With new head coach Stephanie White at the helm, the Indiana Fever are looking for a successful campaign next <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/wnba">WNBA</a> season, but they face uncertainty as key player Kelsey Mitchell approaches free agency. New president Kelly Krauskopf expressed the team’s commitment to re-signing her.



“She’s our number one priority,” Krauskopf said of Mitchell on a November 13 episode of the “Locked on Women’s Basketball” podcast with Howard Megdal. “Yes, we have the opportunity to core her. And it would be sort of irresponsible for me if we didn’t utilize that opportunity,” she added.



The ‘core’ player designation, similar to the NFL’s franchise tag, allows a team to protect one unrestricted free agent per offseason. This gives the team exclusive negotiating rights with the player, who receives a one-year, super-max offer. Since Mitchell agreed to an extension with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/indiana-fever">Indiana Fever</a> in 2021, she has not yet been designated as ‘core.’ However, it’s important to note that a player can only be ‘cored’ a maximum of two times.



“I think honestly, most players who were unrestricted free agents are most likely looking at one-year deals,” explained Krauskopf. “So that’s not unusual, and it certainly doesn’t change our opinion of how important Kelsey is, and how important she is to returning to this team,” she added.

Mitchell has spent all seven years of her career with the Fever. This past season, she had one of her best performances, averaging 19.2 points per game. She finished as the team’s second-leading scorer with 767 points, trailing only teammate <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/wnba/wnba-fever-guard-kelsey-mitchell-shares-heartfelt-message-to-caitlin-clark-as-free-agency-looms">Caitlin Clark, to whom Mitchell recently expressed her admiration in a heartfelt message.</a>



<h2>Mitchell has opened up about her future</h2>



While Mitchell is currently playing for the Shanxi Flame in China for the offseason, she wrote in her recent The Player’s Tribune column that she doesn’t know where she will play next season in the WNBA.



“And it’s hard to know what the future holds,” Mitchell wrote. “I’ll be honest, I don’t know what colors I’ll be wearing next year, which just makes me cherish this season and our group even more,” she said.



The 28-year-old player endured a difficult 2024 due to the loss of her father, Mark Mitchell. This devastating loss, as she has explained, will make her consider all her options. However, Fever leadership and fans remain hopeful that she will stay with the team for at least one more year. After all, as Mitchell herself has expressed, the franchise has been her home.

Tyler Marsh, the newly appointed head coach of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-sky">Chicago Sky</a>, spoke about his expectations for two of his most important players: forward Angel Reese and center Kamilla Cardoso. The duo is expected to carry the franchise in the upcoming years, and Marsh has clear plans for the both of them.



“They’re young stars who have so much ahead of them, and being able to help them try to reach their potential is something that certainly appealed to me. And then also being able to put pieces around them that kind of highlight their strengths and what they do well, and building kind of that culture moving forward is definitely exciting,” he told Fox News.



When asked specifically for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/angel-reese">Reese</a> and how he will help her expand her game, he said: “Angel has already showed some areas where she’s super efficient in,” but he’s looking to “expand on those” and help her be “multidimensional,” so she can help the team scoring, facilitating or defending.



“And the same with Kamilla,” he added. “We want both of them to be integral parts of who we are and what we do, and we don’t want them to just be one dimensional as far as their game goes. We want them to expand their games as much as possible, and open up the floor and create space for everyone else as well.”

<h2>What to expect from the Marsh Era at the Chicago Sky</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/wnba/wnba-news-sky-head-coach-tyler-marsh-opens-up-on-his-biggest-offseason-focus">Marsh already talked about his biggest focus for the offseason</a>. However, he also expanded on what he wants from his new team, both defensively and offensively. “We’ve got to protect the paint first. So we have the mobility and the size to do that,” he said.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/sports/aces-star-aja-wilson-on-angel-reese-why-the-chicago-sky-star-reminds-her-of-herself"></div>


“We want to attack the ball and create turnovers so we can create extra possessions on offense. We want to control the boards, and we have to be in tune until we know the personnel, team tendencies, and individual tendencies,” he added.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20241114_BUS_272198_kamilla-1024x576_765e120d.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="kamilla cardoso" class="wp-image-272201" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/kamilla-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/kamilla-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/kamilla-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/kamilla-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/kamilla-740x416.jpg 740w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/kamilla-490x275.jpg 490w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/kamilla-250x140.jpg 250w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/kamilla.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Kamilla Cardoso #10 of the Chicago Sky looks on during the game against the Seattle Storm (Steph Chambers/Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>



Meanwhile, offensively “is a bit of the reverse. We wanna protect the ball, first and foremost. We don’t want to beat ourselves. If we turn it over, we want to be selfless turnovers, not selfish turnovers,” he explained. “We want to attack the paint and be creative doing so. We want to create for each other and we want to keep playing. We want to be a team that can play through flow.”



With his strong work ethic, basketball knowledge, and ability to connect with players, Marsh is well-positioned to lead the Sky to success. His focus on player development and team culture will be key to the franchise’s future.

WNBA news: Sky coach Tyler Marsh outlines plans to ‘expand’ game of Reese and Cardoso - Bolavip US

Tyler Marsh, the newly appointed head coach of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-sky">Chicago Sky</a>, wasted no time in outlining his priorities for the offseason, which include working closely with Angel Reese and the rest of the team in one key aspect: shooting.



“Lots of it. I told Rachel (Banham) and Michaela (Onyenwere) in our first conversations, ‘when we have it, I want you to feel the confidence of letting it ride.’ And that goes for everyone. Because we’re going to get you shooting some threes, too,” he said looking at Elizabeth Williams, prompting the laughs of the press.



The response wasn’t surprising as the Sky struggled with shooting throughout last season. The team made the fewest three-pointers in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/wnba">WNBA</a>. They only made 4.8 three-pointers per game, while the next worst team (the Connecticut Sun) made 5.9.



He continued, “We got some pieces that we’re going to add, and continue to build around the core that we already intact, moving forward. And so, I’m looking forward to that.” So, it seems like the plan it’s clear for the new coach who is, precisely, known for helping players improve their shooting skills.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">New Sky Head Coach Tyler Marsh on his biggest priority this offseason: "Shooting. We want shooting and lots of it." <a href="https://t.co/Vty6dkydrC">pic.twitter.com/Vty6dkydrC</a>— Chicago Sports Network (@CHSN__) <a href="https://twitter.com/CHSN__/status/1856417680695111736?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 12, 2024</a></blockquote></div><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
</div></figure>



Three-point shooting has been a key element of the Aces’ success under Marsh’s tenure on their coaching staff. In the 2024 regular season, Las Vegas posted a 35.5% three-point shooting accuracy, ranking fourth in the league.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/sports/stephanie-white-makes-something-clear-about-caitlin-clark-and-aliyah-boston-for-fevers-next-season"></div>


<h2>Angel Reese’s shooting stats can improve</h2>



While <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/angel-reese">Angel Reese</a> is best known for being a great rebounder, her rookie season was marked by shooting struggles. She only made 39.9% of her shots and a mere 18.8% of her three-pointers. In fact, there were six games where she shot below 25% from the field.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/sports/sky-star-angel-reese-celebrates-coco-gauffs-wta-finals-triumph-with-warm-message"></div>


However, the forward, who has already recovered from a season-ending wrist fracture, is already working on her catch-and-shoot three-pointer, as seen in a recent social media post. If she can improve this skill, she could become an even more formidable player.

WNBA: Fever guard Kelsey Mitchell shares heartfelt message to Caitlin Clark as free agency looms

WNBA News: Sky head coach Tyler Marsh opens up on his biggest offseason focus - Bolavip US

Indiana Fever guard Kelsey Mitchell wrote a column for The Players’ Tribune in which she opened up about the ups and downs of her 2024 WNBA season, including the painful loss of her father, Mark Mitchell, in March, as well as hateful comments from fans. Despite the challenges, she also had heartfelt words for her newest teammate, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/caitlin-clark">Caitlin Clark</a>.



“And I have so much respect for Caitlin, especially, and how she handled it as a youngin,” Mitchell wrote. “I hope we did a good job of being there for you, too, C (heart emoji). I gave her her flowers early in the game because the eyes she brought shined a light on all of us, too.”



At another point in her letter, Mitchell addressed how the attention from new fans was one of the “craziest” parts of the season. “We obviously had a new spotlight on us, with Caitlin being drafted, who I’m proud to call a teammate. That was exciting in its own way, with the fans it brought to the arena and the opportunity it gave our squad. But I think, in a weird way, the outside noise kind of made people forget sometimes that we’re still human.”



Mitchell, 28, has spent her entire seven-year WNBA career with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/indiana-fever">Indiana Fever.</a> This year, she enjoyed one of her best seasons, averaging 19.2 points per game and earning All-Star honors for a second consecutive year. She finished the season with 767 points, just behind Caitlin Clark’s 769. However, Mitchell also revealed she is uncertain about her next steps.

<h2>Mitchell reflects on her future with the Indiana Fever</h2>



The point guard, who recently began playing overseas for the Shanxi Flame, admitted she doesn’t know what her next season will look like as she enters her free agency period.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/sports/wnba-new-york-liberty-star-says-she-wants-fevers-caitlin-clark-as-teammate"></div>


“And it’s hard to know what the future holds,” Mitchell wrote. “I’ll be honest, I don’t know what colors I’ll be wearing next year, which just makes me cherish this season and our group even more.”



Mitchell has previously explained that her family will play a significant role in her decision-making process, particularly after the tragic loss of her father. “Obviously, I’ve always had a home in Indy, so it could potentially be a home for me again, but I think right now, the switching dynamic of my family and everything, I gotta do what’s best for me. That’s not hanging my hat on one team or another, but I think it’s specifically for me. I got to be selfish about that process.”



In The Players’ Tribune, she wrote: “You don’t expect your dad to die at 56. That sent a shock through our whole family and everyone that knew him. It hurt more than I could ever put into words. Pain and trauma makes you look at life a little different. I didn’t know what would happen next, if I was going to play this season… how I was supposed to play this season.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/sports/wnba-geno-auriemma-offers-new-explanation-for-why-players-were-beating-up-caitlin-clark"></div>


However, given her strong relationship with her teammates, it’s likely Mitchell will consider staying in Indiana. The Fever can also protect her by designating her as a core player, which is similar to the NFL’s franchise tag. WNBA teams can core one unrestricted free agent per offseason, but a player can only be cored for a maximum of two seasons. Since Mitchell agreed to an extension in 2021, she has yet to be cored.

WNBA: Fever guard Kelsey Mitchell shares heartfelt message to Caitlin Clark as free agency looms - Bolavip US

During her appearance at the pro-am golf event at The Annika on Wednesday, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/caitlin-clark">Caitlin Clark</a> shared her thoughts on the Indiana Fever’s upcoming season. The 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year made it clear that she and the team, now coached by Stephanie White, are aiming higher next year.



“Our goal last year was to reach the playoffs, and we accomplished that, but now we want to be championship contenders,” Clark told reporters. “I think we’re putting the pieces together to make that happen—hopefully adding some free agents. You can feel the excitement throughout the organization, the city, and our fans. I can’t wait to get back out there. Honestly, I wish we had a game tomorrow.”



Clark’s comments reflect her enthusiasm for a new campaign amid a transformative period for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/indiana-fever">Fever</a>. The franchise has brought in a new president, Kelly Krauskopf, and general manager, Amber Cox, while welcoming back White as head coach. White returns to Indiana after a successful two-year stint leading the Connecticut Sun.



Speaking about White with ESPN, Clark recently described her as a “legend” in Indiana. “Playing against her, I always felt her teams had the best scouting reports on us. That speaks to her knowledge of the game and analytical skills. Clearly, she was on the right track. Hopefully, now that she knows how to challenge us, she can help us overcome similar obstacles.”

Coached by Christie Sides last season, the Fever ended a playoff drought dating back to 2016. Though they lost to White’s Sun in the first round, the campaign was still a success, bolstered by talents such as Aliyah Boston, the No. 1 pick in 2023, and Lexie Hull.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/sports/wnba-caitlin-clark-reveals-what-she-expects-from-new-fevers-head-coach-stephanie-white"></div>


<h2>Clark Still Uncommitted for the Offseason Despite Unrivaled’s Offer</h2>



According to multiple reports, the new 3v3 basketball league, Unrivaled, which spans eight weeks starting in January, has <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/unrivaled-to-copy-mls-lionel-messi-strategy-to-persuade-wnba-star-caitlin-clark">made a “Lionel Messi-like offer” to Clark to join</a>. However, the guard appears content to take some time for herself and decompress after her first WNBA season.



That doesn’t mean Clark isn’t working on her game during the break. “Besides the actual basketball skill part of it, I think getting stronger is my focus,” she said when asked about her offseason goals. “I’m spending a lot of time in the weight room, just building that strength.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/sports/wnba-geno-auriemma-offers-new-explanation-for-why-players-were-beating-up-caitlin-clark"></div>


“I’m always wanting to get better, and that’s what drives me,” she added. “I love what I do, and I’m very fortunate that it’s my job.” After an impressive rookie season, fans are eager to see just how high Clark can climb in the years ahead.
