<p>Caitlin Clark's presence on the Indiana Fever led to opposing teams changing venues to a larger seating capacity to host thousands more fans than usual for games.</p>
<p>But this year's first-round pick, Dallas Wings All-Star guard Paige Bueckers, makes the draw even bigger on Aug. 1 when these teams are set to face off in Dallas.</p>
<p>The American Airlines Center, home to the NBA's Dallas Mavericks and the NHL's Dallas Stars, will be the site for Fever-Wings on that date as it's expected to fit around 20,000 spectators.</p>

<p>Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark (22) plays against the Dallas Wings in the second half of a WNBA basketball game in Indianapolis, Sunday, Sept. 15, 2024.</p>
<p>The Wings' usual home court is found at the College Park Center in Arlington, which fits just 7,000 fans.</p>
<p>This matchup is dubbed "The Sequel," as these two teams played in a sold-out American Airlines Center on June 27.</p>

<p>It was a high-scoring bout, where the Fever came away with the victory on the road, 94-86. Clark, who was dealing with an injury, didn't play in the game, but Bueckers led her team with 27 points and six assists in the loss.</p>
<p>For Indiana, Kelsey Mitchell exploded for 32 points, seven assists and three rebounds, while Alyiah Boston added 21 points, six rebounds and three assists in the win.</p>
<p>Clark's status now remains uncertain, as she's missed the last five contests with a groin injury. She also dealt with a left quad strain earlier this season, which also led to five missed games.</p>
<p>Clark has played just nine games this year, averaging 18.2 points, five rebounds and 8.9 assists per game. The Fever have been able to keep strong during her absences, owning a 9-9 overall record, which puts them third in the Eastern Conference.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the Wings didn't get the resurgence they thought would come by adding Bueckers and others this offseason. They own the worst record in the Western Conference at 6-13 on the year.</p>
<p>But Bueckers has been showing out in her rookie season, averaging 18.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 5.7 assists, as she earned what should be the first of many All-Star nods.</p>
