A video from a Team USA practice will get Hawkeye and Fever fans hyped

It has been a long road to recovery for former Iowa superstar Caitlin Clark.

Clark, a Des Moines, Iowa native, burst onto the scene for Iowa Women's basketball in 2020 and completely changed the game.

She guided the Hawkeyes to back-to-back National Championship appearances (2023, 2024) and shattered multiple Iowa program and national records along the way.

She continued her success in the WNBA during her rookie season after the Indiana Fever drafted her No. 1 overall.

One of the most underrated parts of Clark's ability was her availability.

The superstar guard never missed a game and played almost every minute of every game until she reached the WNBA.

During her second professional season, Clark was derailed by multiple leg injuries, limiting her to only 13 games.

WNBA and Clark fans around the country have been eagerly awaiting her return to the court, and they got what they wanted after a video surfaced from a Team USA practice.

In signature Caitlin Clark fashion, she slammed on the brakes in transition and nailed a step-back three. Suffice it to say, it is great to see Clark back on the court!

Clark is one of 10 new additions to the senior Team USA squad, and she should be a lock to make the squad as they prepare for the 2026 FIBA World Cup in Berlin next September.

Her spot on the team is contingent upon her health, and she provided some great news about her injury recovery and rehab.

Clark stated that she feels like she has been moving pretty good on the court, and it is "great to be back to 100%."

CC had to not only get over the physical challenges she was facing, but the mental challenges as well.

She mentioned that being hurt is a "very isolating thing," but it taught her to be a good teammate, and pouring into her teammates helped her make it through.

It is great to see the joy returning to Clark's face, and even better to see her return to the court for Team USA.
