Clark made her long-awaited return to the basketball court on May 4, when the Indiana Fever played against Brazil’s international team.

The Iowa native missed the team’s first preseason game on Saturday, but she wasn’t going to miss Sunday’s game, which was played at her alma mater’s stadium.

Amid the 108-44 blowout victory, Clark, who scored 16 points, six rebounds, and five assists, could be seen relaxed on the sidelines alongside Lexie Hull and Sophia Cunningham.

Fans couldn’t help but notice how insanely close Caitlin Clark was to Hull.

One post stated, “They are not beating the work wife allegations 😭,” while providing a video of the trio on the bench.

“Need to add Cameron Brink to this team, and Caitlin will have a harem,” one fan said.

“Got caught 😁,” a second fan added.

“caitlin can get it 🤤 lemme join the harem 💞,” a fourth fan wrote.

The reigning rookie of the year has been dating the former basketball player and assistant coach since April 2023. They first met at the University of Iowa, where they were both student athletes playing for the Hawkeyes.
