Caitlin Clark is making waves not just on the basketball court but also off it, as she gears up for her second season with the Indiana Fever in the WNBA. Following her record-breaking rookie year, where she was selected as the league’s No. 1 overall pick in 2024, Clark and the Fever are looking ahead to an exciting 2025 campaign. The Fever have made a number of significant moves in the offseason, including the high-profile acquisition of six-time WNBA All-Star DeWanna Bonner, setting the stage for a competitive season.
During a recent media session, Clark addressed the team’s recent changes and the potential impact they could have in the upcoming season. However, what caught the attention of fans wasn’t just her insights into the Fever’s prospects—it was her appearance. Clark wore glasses during the interview, a rare look for her, and it didn’t take long for fans to jump on the new style, giving her the playful nickname “Caitlin Clark Kent.” The rectangular glasses sparked creativity online, with some fans imagining her as a superhero, referencing her ability to “leap over defenses” and be a role model for many aspiring athletes.
One fan even commented, “There’s a Superman parody ad waiting to be made with Caitlin Clark and those glasses,” while others embraced the idea of Clark being a real-life superhero, with her powerful presence on the court and her influence off it. Her glasses quickly became a symbol of both her fresh look and her legendary basketball talents.
As for the upcoming season, Clark is excited about the addition of Bonner to the Fever. After a tough playoff exit in the first round last season, Clark is hopeful that Bonner’s competitive spirit will elevate the team. Clark spoke highly of her new teammate, noting that Bonner’s leadership and relentless drive to improve will push everyone to perform at their best. “Training camp is going to be really fun,” Clark said, emphasizing that Bonner’s experience will be invaluable in the team’s pursuit of higher postseason goals.
The Fever’s 2025 season will kick off on May 17, with a matchup against Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky. As Clark and the Fever prepare for the new season, fans will be watching closely to see how the team builds chemistry and whether Clark’s new look and determination can help lead them to a successful year.
