Over the weekend, Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever hosted a pool party before their WNBA game against the Phoenix Mercury.
Clark and the Indiana Fever prepared for their first showdown of the season against Brittney Griner, Diana Taurasi, and the Phoenix Mercury by cooling off in the hot temperatures.
The Fever desperately needed to come out and play to secure their first victory over a team that had a .500 record, so a pool day was greatly needed.
After their team’s practice on Saturday, Clark and a few of her teammates enjoyed a relaxing afternoon at a local pool in Phoenix.

The pool day clearly worked as Caitlin Clark delivered by finishing one rebound short of what would have been the first triple-double by a WNBA rookie as Indiana beat the Mercury 88-82.
Despite the Fever falling behind early and trailing by 11 at halftime, and being down as much as 15 in the second half, the Fever put in an epic second-half effort to send fans home happy despite being on the road.
Caitlin Clark ended the night with 15 points, 12 assists, and nine rebounds as she passed the Fever’s rookie franchise record, recording 138 assists in just 20 games, per ESPN.com.
