Day 2 of the Indiana Fever’s training camp offered a lively glimpse of Caitlin Clark’s animated side. The Fever superstar was once again in high spirits, fully locked in as the team intensified its preparations. Beyond delivering highlight-reel assists, the reigning WNBA Rookie of the Year also showed her commitment on the defensive end.
In a viral clip from camp, Clark is seen applying relentless, suffocating defense on Lexie Hull, ultimately forcing a turnover. While her defensive effort alone was impressive, it was her wild, animated celebration afterward that truly stole the spotlight. The video quickly lit up social media, with fans praising Clark’s fiery competitiveness and defensive intensity.
Fever supporters were energized by the display, flooding the internet with excited reactions to the moment. Caitlin Clark isn’t typically recognized for her defense and hasn’t been known to excel on that end of the floor. However, the Indiana Fever guard has made a deliberate effort this offseason to build muscle, aiming to hold her ground better and avoid being overpowered by bigger, stronger opponents.
Clark’s willingness to defend, or at least consistently compete on that end of the floor, is an encouraging sign for the Indiana Fever. Given all the work she’s put in during the offseason, it feels inevitable that her efforts will pay off, both for herself and for the franchise.
