Hawkeye and Fever fans already got an early Christmas present when Caitlin Clark returned to the court for Team USA.

Clark spent much of the 2025 WNBA season on the sidelines with a myriad of leg injuries, and it was great to see the former Hawkeye and current Indiana Fever superstar make her return.

Last season, Clark played in only 16 games, averaging 16.5 points, 8.8 assists, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.6 steals per game.

Clark got the call for Team USA, looked like she was back to her old self.

After a team practice, Clark stated that she is close to 100 percent and she is feeling great both physically and mentally.

On Christmas day, Nike gave Clark fans another reason to celebrate after releasing their newest ad that focused on the Fever superstar.

Nike released a new 46-second ad on Christmas that focuses on the former Iowa superstar.

NFL legends Jason and Travis Kelce, rapper Travis Scott, comedian Michael Che, and former Iowa Women's Basketball Head Coach Lisa Bluder were all part of the commercial.

Paying homage to Clark's legendary shooting range, everyone in the clip asked Clark, "Can you make it from here?"

Clark also released multiple alternate clips of her making shots from Butler University's legendary Hinkle Fieldhouse, where her boyfriend, and former Hawkeye Men's Basketball player, Connor McCaffery, is a coach.

Nike has not officially announced when Clark's new 2026 signature line will drop, but the commercial ramped up the anticipation.

Clark has become a global phenomenon, and whenever her new signature line drops, especially her new shoe, it will almost guaranteedly be sold out within hours of the release.
