Ahead of her home debut for the Indiana Fever against the New York Liberty on Thursday, Caitlin Clark received a big welcome to the city of Indianapolis.
Gatorade installed a 150-foot banner on the side of the Hyatt Regency in downtown Indianapolis to commemorate Clark’s first home game:

Clark signed an endorsement deal with Gatorade during her senior season at Iowa this past December. Gatorade donated $22,000 to the Caitlin Clark Foundation as part of the deal.
In addition to the banner, Gatorade also released a new commercial featuring Clark earlier this week:

Clark is hoping to bounce back from a lackluster performance in Indiana’s season-opening 92-71 loss to the Connecticut Sun in which she finished with 20 points on 5-of-15 shooting with 10 turnovers.
The Fever will face a tough test against the Liberty, who opened the year with an 85-80 win over the Washington Mystic and are chasing a second straight trip to the WNBA Finals.
