And it shows in the ratings as 41 out of 44 Fever games will be played on national TV or streaming services.
That is according to Front Office Sports, who claim nearly all of the famous point guard’s games will be aired.
That is the most of any franchise by far, with the next highest team – the Las Vegas Aces – having 33 of their games on TV.
Clark’s WNBA team will make 10 live appearances on ABC or ESPN.
And Disney’s opening-day coverage on May 17 will include the match between Fever and Angel Reese’s Chicago Sky.
And CBS will feature Clark in the WNBA’s first ever primetime games on broadcast television.
Ion, on the other hand, is scheduled to televise eight Indiana games as part of its Friday doubleheader package.
WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert said: “With so much excitement around the player movement that took place this winter through free agency and trades, the WNBA’s broadcast and streaming partners in 2025 will spotlight the league’s superstars, rising stars and must-see matchups like never before.”
Clark has stood out for Fever ever since her arrival last year when she was drafted as the first overall pick.
The basketball star has been turning heads ever since high school where she played for Dowling in her native Iowa.
And she then burst onto the scene in college with the Iowa Hawkeyes.
Clark’s star status has often outshone the likes of NBA legend LeBron James as well as NFL superstars Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes.
