The Indiana Fever are back in action for their second preseason game, and this time they're taking on the Dallas Wings on Thursday, April 30 at 7 p.m. ET on ION. After a week that included a surprise visit from country music superstar Blake Shelton at practice, the Fever are ready to hit the court with momentum on their side.
Indiana kicked off their preseason with an impressive 109-91 win over the New York Liberty last Saturday. All eyes were on Caitlin Clark, who posted seven points, four assists, and three rebounds in just under 17 minutes of play. It was a meaningful return for Clark, who was limited to only 13 games in 2025 due to a series of soft tissue injuries. "Anytime you get to put on your uniform and lace up your shoes, you don't take that for granted," Clark shared after the game. "Coming into this game, just a lot of excitement, not a ton of nerves. Everybody's just trying to get their footing again, same goes for me."
On the other side of the court, the Dallas Wings are entering a new era under head coach Jose Fernandez, who spent the last 25 seasons leading USF. The Wings also made headlines in the WNBA draft by selecting sharpshooter Azzi Fudd with the No. 1 overall pick, reuniting her with former UConn teammate Paige Bueckers. With fresh talent and a new coaching staff, Dallas is looking to make a statement in the preseason.
As the WNBA continues to showcase incredible talent—from past No. 1 picks like A'ja Wilson and Breanna Stewart to rising stars like Clark and Fudd—this matchup is a must-watch for any basketball fan. Whether you're tuning in for the action or just getting hyped for the season ahead, make sure you're ready to show your team pride in style.
