Caitlin Clark Breaks Another Record—This Time in Ticket Prices

The WNBA preseason is getting underway, with Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever drawing record demand for an exhibition against Brazil.

HawkCentral

The WNBA season is drawing near, and the Caitlin Clark Effect is back.

Demand for the Indiana Fever’s preseason game Sunday against the Brazil national women’s basketball team has reached record levels.

With tickets to the exhibition contest being played at the University of Iowa’s 15,500-seat Carver-Hawkeye Arena sold out, the average resale price on the secondary market has hit $440. That’s the most for any game Clark has ever played professionally or collegiately, according to data that ticketing technology company Victory Live provided to Front Office Sports.

Clark’s return to her alma mater ahead of her second WNBA season is topping several major moments from her basketball career:

  • $440: Brazil–Fever in Iowa City on May 4
  • $411: Ohio State–Iowa on March 3, 2024; Clark set the NCAA’s all-time scoring record on senior night.
  • $309: Michigan–Iowa on Feb. 15, 2024; Clark broke the NCAA’s all-time women’s scoring record.
  • $289: USC–Iowa on Feb. 2; Clark was in attendance to have her jersey retired.

The Fever recently released—and subsequently sold out of—a T-shirt that read “EVERY GAME IS A HOME GAME,” in reference to the support Indiana gets on the road, including many opponents moving their games against the Fever to bigger arenas to accommodate more fans who want to see Clark play.

It won’t be cheap to see Clark play this season, though. 

The average ticket resale price for Fever away games is $272, which is up from $171 in 2024, per Victory Live. Fever home games are averaging $197 on the secondary market, more than double last season’s $92 home average.

Clark Ready for Year 2

Clark said the Fever have championship expectations this season, following some major offseason moves after failing to advance out of the first round of the playoffs last year.

“I’m just really excited,” Clark said Wednesday during the Fever’s media day. “I’m lucky to be here and to have been drafted here last year. For this franchise to put so many great resources in front of us, whether it’s building the new practice facility or how much they invest into us, and all the resources that they provide us—really just fortunate and excited for our roster.”

Since last season ended, the Fever hired a new chief operating officer and GM in Amber Cox, a new coach in Stephanie White, and unveiled plans for a $78 million downtown training center.
