WNBA Makes Big Caitlin Clark, Indiana Fever Announcement
The WNBA made quite a loud statement on Wednesday about the direction of the league and who is driving it. In a major announcement, the league confirmed that all 44 games played by the Indiana Fever during the 2026 season will be broadcast nationally.
This is not a typical scheduling update. It is a sign of demand, momentum, and a clear shift in visibility for women's basketball. At the center of it all is Caitlin Clark, whose presence has quickly turned the Fever into one of the most-watched teams in the sport. When the season gets underway, fans will be able to watch their games.

The games will air on ABC/ESPN, USA, Prime Video, ION, NBC/Peacock, CBS, and NBA TV.
A New Level Of Exposure For The League
Indiana's full schedule will air across major platforms, including ABC, ESPN, NBC, CBS, ION, NBA TV, Peacock, and Prime Video. That kind of national reach is rare and signals just how much interest the Fever are generating on a nightly basis.
For fans, it removes barriers to seeing them play. There is no searching for streams or regional coverage. Every game will be accessible, reinforcing the idea that Indiana has become must-watch television.
The Caitlin Clark Effect Is Real
Clark's impact goes beyond her stat line of 16.5 points and 8.8 assists per game. She has brought consistent attention, strong ratings, and a new wave of fans to the league.
The WNBA is leaning into that momentum. Rather than gradually expanding exposure, the league is fully committing to it. Clark's games are no longer just featured matchups. They are the foundation of the schedule.
Indiana Fever Now At The Center Of The Spotlight
This move also highlights how quickly the Fever have risen in relevance. Alongside Clark, players like Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell give the roster both star power and balance.
The bigger picture is clear. The WNBA is not just promoting a team. It is built around a moment. And right now, that moment belongs to Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever.
