INDIANAPOLIS – Caitlin Clark will make her preseason home debut a day earlier than originally scheduled, Indiana Fever officials announced Friday.
Indiana was initially scheduled to host the Atlanta Dream on May 10. The game will now be played on Thursday.
The scheduling conflict occurred as the Indiana Pacers and New York Knicks advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinals of the NBA playoffs with victories in Game 6 on Thursday night. League officials then announced that the two teams would play Game 3 in Indiana on May 10 at 7 p.m. – the same date and time that the Fever and Dream would play.
Both Indiana teams play in the same building, Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Fever officials said tickets dated May 10 will be valid for the rescheduled game and that the game will be shown on the WNBA app.
Clark’s first professional game will be played Friday night in Dallas. Indiana opens the regular season May 14 at Connecticut and plays its home opener May 16 against New York.
