As the fever gear up for the 2025 season, there’s no question that Clark is Central to their plans.

Fever general manager Lyn Dunn made it clear that retaining Kelsey Mitchell is a top priority for the off season.

The fever need additional talent to compete with teams like the New York Liberty and Connecticut Sun, but Clark’s leadership and uptempo style are already drawing interest from other players in the League League.

However, there’s more happening off the court.

Basketball icon Sue bird recently called out the Wnba for fostering a divisive and racist atmosphere.

She, along with Soccer Star Megan Rapino, criticized the League’s handling of racist incidents involving players like Angel Ree and the South Carolina women’s team.

Rapino argued that the League’s approach, including comments made by Wnba commissioner Kathy Engelbert, downplays the seriousness of the issue, suggesting that racism is good for business.

The Wnba’s leadership is now under scrutiny and many fans, along with players, are demanding accountability.

Where this will lead the league as yet to be seen, but one thing is clear: both on and off the court, major changes may be on the horizon.
