Following the Fever Game, the Atlanta Dream made a huge announcement on the Caitlin Clark Effect. The largest WNBA game crowd in Georgia history was surpassed when Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever marched into Atlanta. State Farm Arena had 17,608 spectators enter the Dream, almost 800 more than the venue’s stated capacity. Due to high demand for tickets, the Atlanta Hawks played the game at their home arena rather than their regular one. Atlanta was defeated 84-79 by the Fever. The Dream have dropped their last two games following their three-game winning streak upon their return from the WNBA’s…
Braves could target Giants ace in free agency to replace Max Fried. The Atlanta Braves have remained a postseason contender despite various injuries this season, many of which have resulted in them falling out of the top spot in the National League East. To make matters worse, they have not yet been able to reach an agreement on an extension with Max Fried, who may ultimately depart in free agency. Fortunately, there are other options, and they could potentially replace him with a former Cy Young winner. “Blake Snell won the NL Cy Young Award last year but didn’t land…
Indiana Fever Star Lands on Injury Report Before Sun Clash. On Wednesday night, Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever will face the Connecticut Sun for the fourth and final time of the 2024 WNBA season. The Fever have been one of the best teams after the Olympic break, going 3-1 with every victory against a playoff-contending team. However, Indiana could be without one of their starters for the upcoming game. According to IndyStar Sports writer Chloe Peterson, forward Katie Lous Samuelson has been added to the Fever’s injury report due to personal reasons. This may not come as a surprise…
Caitlin Clark uses similarities to current NBA legends to reinterpret the history of the WNBA. Caitlin Clark joined the WNBA in April and since then, she has had a good impact on the entire league. With 2.4 million viewers, Clark was the first overall selection in the most viewed WNBA Draft. In addition, she was chosen as the player that received the most votes for the most viewed WNBA All-Star game ever, which attracted 3.44 million viewers—a startling 305% increase over the previous year. In 14 of the 16 games that attracted more than a million people, Clark was a…
Fantasy Baseball Injury Rankings: Yu Darvish and Ozzie Albies deserve a position still, according to the Top 40 IL stashes. With only a month left in the season, it stands to reason that any remaining IL stash is nothing more than a hope and a prayer. There is simply no margin for error in a player’s recovery, and even the ones on track return in 2-3 weeks may not have time to regain your trust before the season is done. That’s why I usually go for the more influential player when given the choice between having a longer timetable or…
‘This is the moment’: Tavares of the Maple Leafs is ‘honored’ to hand over leadership to Matthews. John Tavares, a teammate who has served as captain since the 2019–20 season, will hand the captaincy over to the Maple Leafs star. Only Mats Sundin and Matthews will be non-Canadian captains in the history of the team, making Matthews the 26th captain overall. The torch was formally passed and Toronto’s brightest star was crowned at a packed news conference on Wednesday in Toronto, which was attended by the families of both players, teammates Mitch Marner and Morgan Rielly, as well as former…
Braves news: Marcell Ozuna injury, postseason worries, Luke Jackson future A foul ball hit Marcell Ozuna, Luke Jackson had another bad outing, and the Braves Nation is panicking — just another Sunday in Atlanta. It’s difficult to recall an MLB team enjoying a season similar to the Atlanta Braves of 2024. They manage to stay in the hunt despite several injuries and a lack of momentum adjustments. But they’re not merely on the search. The hunted are them. The Braves lost to the Washington Nationals on Sunday but still won the two games before that to win the series. The…
The Braves must acknowledge that their reunion with the popular favorite must cease. Baseball business shouldn’t always be impeded by emotions. In baseball, reunions don’t always end happily. At this year’s trade deadline, the Atlanta Braves took a chance by adding two former Braves to their roster. One side of the deal has prospered, but the other has not been able to rediscover his former charm. During his first Braves season (2017–2021), Luke Jackson made a name for himself as a reliable MLB reliever. Jackson pitched 254 innings during that span, recording a 3.93 ERA, 3.71 FIP, and 2.4 fWAR.…
When a teammate of Caitlin Clark makes a “dirty” play against a rival, the Fever bench finds it amusing. On Monday night, the Indiana Fever triumphed, their fifth victory in the previous seven games. They are currently 3.5 games ahead of the Atlanta Dream, the team they defeated on Monday, and occupy the second-to-last playoff berth in the WNBA. Again, Caitlin Clark turned in a strong all-around performance, and Kelsey Mitchell scored a scorching 29 points. Everyone had to step up for the Fever, and Lexie Hull, who played a season-high thirty minutes, was one such player. Hull gained notoriety…
Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever is having an amazing rookie season, breaking records left and right. We recently witnessed another incredible performance by Caitlin Clark. Whoever keeps making the comparisons of rookies Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese needs to stop right now and reconsider their position. Although Reese will definitely be a historic player in this league and will offer Clark a lot of competition, this rookie season has been a no-brainer to pick the best. Granted, Reese has gone through some incredible moments this season that would’ev gotten her the Rookie of the Year Award without a problem.…
