For all their drama recently, all appears well with the Indiana Fever — for now.
On Thursday, the Fever got a nice win over the Dream as Kelsey Mitchell paved the way, while Caitlin Clark added 8 assists. What was more notable for Clark, however, was a moment she shared with her head coach.
Clark and Stephanie White, who were previously seen having an intense in-game argument not long ago, shared a hug in celebration as Indiana was cruising offensively vs. Atlanta.
Here's a look at the moment between Clark and White following recent questions over any issues in their star-coach relationship.

Caitlin Clark and Stephanie White share hug
The Fever offense began humming in the second half vs. Atlanta on Thursday night. After Clark hit a side-step 3-pointer, then had a clean fastbreak pass for another Indiana bucket, she pumped her first as the home crowd got fired up.
Clark, still celebrating, approached her head coach and offered a brief hug.

Chatter of White's job security has been rampant lately, with the Fever off to a lackluster start to the 2026 season and a few lingering controversies. White was criticized for mischaracterizing a Caitlin Clark injury to the media before Indiana held Clark out of a game.
Additionally, Clark and White were seen having an in-game confrontation during a timeout in a recent game.

Clark had a nice day against Atlanta, but she wasn't the Fever's biggest star with Mitchell posting 25 points. Still, coming off a rough six-point performance on Saturday, Clark bounced back with 17 points and eight assists.
Once Indiana began pulling away in the second half, Clark's presence wasn't needed in any clutch moments, as she came alive in the third quarter to lead the Fever to their fifth win of the season.
