- Sophie Cunningham Makes Offer to Caitlin Clark Amid WNBA Offseason
Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham missed out on long periods of the 2025 WNBA season with injuries, but the Indiana Fever still put together a remarkable postseason run without their two fiery leaders on the floor.
The Fever set a franchise record for regular-season wins (24), followed by their first playoff win since 2015. They pushed the eventual WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces to a winner-take-all Game 5, but ultimately bowed out in the semifinals .

On Thursday, LPGA's The Annika announced Clark's return to its pro-am golf tournament for the second straight year. Cunningham wasted no time trying to get in on the action, offering to carry Clark's bag on the course with the help of the third Fever player who makes up their " Tres Leches " crew.

" @caitlinclark22 need a couple of caddies? @lexiehulll ," Cunningham asked on a post by the Indiana Fever team account.
Although Clark did not reply to the offer on Instagram, Indiana guard Lexie Hull gave an enthusiastic response to Cunningham's comment, urging, "sign us up!!!"
Clark, who averaged 16.5 points in 13 games for the Fever in 2025, still has plenty of time to decide if she wants to grant Cunningham and Hull their wish.

The pro-am tournament takes place on Wednesday, Nov. 12 at Pelican Golf Club in Belleair, Fla. It is followed by the weekend LPGA tour event, which offers a $3.25 million purse.
"I had an amazing time at The Annika last November and participating in the Pro-Am alongside Nelly Korda and Annika Sorenstam, two of the best in the game," Clark said in a statement. "I can't wait to return to Tampa Bay in November to play in the Pro-Am with the best women golfers in the world."

Clark's crossover into the golf world promises to be met with plenty of fanfare regardless, but the presence of two more Fever players on the course could make it that much more memorable.
