Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever will face the Golden State Valkyries on Thursday, May 28, in their seventh regular-season game of the 2026 WNBA season, with Indiana looking for its second straight win over Golden State. The game tips off at 9 p.m. CT and will stream on Prime Video. WNBA League Pass subscribers can watch the replay at 5 a.m. Friday. The Fever enter the matchup at 4-2, while the Valkyries are also 4-2 and coming off a 97-70 victory over the Connecticut Sun.
Clark returned to the Fever lineup in Indiana’s 90-82 win over Golden State on May 22 after missing the previous game against the Portland Fire because of a back injury. In her return, the former Iowa star led the team with 22 points and added nine assists, two rebounds, one steal and one block. Her performance helped Indiana secure the earlier win over the Valkyries and reinforced her role as the team’s primary offensive catalyst.
Golden State has distributed its scoring across several players this season. Veronica Burton leads the Valkyries with 14.3 points and 6.3 assists per game, followed by Gabby Williams at 13.5 points and 3.3 rebounds and Janelle Salaun at 12 points and three rebounds per contest. Kayla Thornton and Tiffany Hayes are each averaging more than nine points per game, giving the Valkyries multiple scoring threats as they try to even the season series with Indiana.
Indiana’s schedule remains busy after Thursday’s game. The Fever’s next five matchups begin with a road game at Portland on May 30, followed by a home game against the Atlanta Dream on June 4. Indiana then visits the New York Liberty on June 6, plays the Washington Mystics on June 8 and hosts the Chicago Sky on June 11. Several of those games will be available on national television or streaming platforms, with additional regional coverage listed for fans in Iowa.
The Fever also made a roster move last week, signing forward Grace VanSlooten to a rest-of-season contract after waiving guard Shatori Walker-Kimbrough. VanSlooten, a two-time All-Big Ten selection at Michigan State, was the No. 39 pick in the 2026 WNBA Draft by the Seattle Storm. She appeared in four games for Seattle before being waived and made her Fever debut on May 22, playing two minutes against Golden State.
Clark’s early-season production has kept her among the league’s top stars. Through five games in 2026, she is averaging 23.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and nine assists per game while shooting 43.2 percent from the field and 34.8 percent from three-point range. She is currently second in WNBA MVP betting odds behind A’ja Wilson, while the Fever are listed among the top contenders for the 2026 WNBA championship behind the Las Vegas Aces and New York Liberty.
