Caitlin Clark sported a unique t-shirt during the Fever vs. Sky game, originally highlighted by Athlon Sports. Indiana Fever faced off against the Chicago Sky in the Windy City on Sunday, with Kate Linklark sidelined once again. Despite her absence, the Fever secured an impressive 93-78 road win against Chicago, who were also without Angel Lease due to ongoing injuries.
The Fever wore white jerseys for this game, a shift from their "Stranger Things" themed uniforms seen during Thursday’s win over the Las Vegas Aces. However, Clark still showcased the team’s exciting Netflix collaboration through her special outfit. She wore a white t-shirt displaying the word "heat" printed upside down in the distinctive "Stranger Things" font, a nod to the show’s alternate dimension concept known as the "Upside Down."
Beneath the “heat” print were the Fever’s logo, the "Stranger Things" Demogorgon icon, and the clothing brand Round21. Unfortunately, fans eager to purchase these shirts found that both Round21’s online store and the Indiana Fever team shop had already sold out, with restocking plans yet to be announced.
The Fever first introduced their "Stranger Things" uniforms in 2021, bringing them back by popular demand ahead of the show’s fifth and final season premiere on November 26. Beyond game jerseys, the collection includes apparel like shirts, hoodies, caps, bags, mugs, and more. The Fever are set to wear these special jerseys again on Wednesday.

Fan Take: The Fever’s partnership with Netflix and the creative use of "Stranger Things" merchandising not only energizes the fan base but also highlights a growing trend of unique crossovers that help raise the profile of the WNBA. Such collaborations bring fresh excitement and broader appeal, which are crucial for the sport’s continued growth and visibility.
