Caitlin Clark returns to the WNBA after a three-week-long injury break for the latest game in the Commissioner's Cup. Below, we've outlined how to watch the New York Liberty vs. Indiana Fever and what time you can expect the game to tip off.
The Fever and Liberty most recently faced off on May 24, the last game that Clark played before taking some time off to deal with a quad strain. It was a tight match-up for all four quarters, but the Liberty ultimately pulled ahead 90-88. The Liberty are the reigning champions and currently 9-0, the only team still undefeated this season after the Seattle Storm took out the Minnesota Lynx on Wednesday night. The Fever, who will play host for today's game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, have had a rockier start to the season. They're currently 4-5, but still rank second in the Eastern Conference Commissioner's Cup rankings.
The cheapest way to live stream the Liberty vs. Fever in the US without a free trial is through ESPN Plus. Keep reading to learn everything you need to know about the app, in addition to some other streaming services that will help you tune in.

The New York Liberty vs. Indiana Fever game will air on ABC in the United States. The game is scheduled to tip off on Saturday at 3 p.m. ET / 12 p.m. PT. As we mentioned above, the absolute cheapest way to live stream the game in the US is through ESPN Plus. The streaming service costs $12 per month and live streams select games from ABC and ESPN properties, including WNBA, NHL, and NFL events.
ESPN Plus is designed for sports, giving subscribers access to live MLB, NHL, NFL, soccer, golf, and UFC fights. You can pay $12 monthly or go for an annual deal, which saves you about $20 a year. There's also a bundle with Hulu and Disney Plus, which offers an even better discount.
If you'd prefer to watch with a service that has a free trial or you're looking for something more akin to a cable replacement, then a month-to-month live TV streaming service such as DirecTV or Fubo is the way to go. DirecTV's MySports pack carries 25 popular sports channels like ESPN (and ABC, in select regions) for $70 per month and includes access to ESPN Plus. New customers can try it out free for five days.
DirecTV's MySports pack carries popular sports channels, from mainstays like ESPN to niche offerings like the ACC Network.
Fubo offers 150+ live channels (including widespread ABC coverage) through its Fubo Pro plan, the base tier in the streamer's offerings. Subscriptions cost $85 per month, but new users can get $20 knocked off their first month of service after enjoying a seven-day free trial.
Fubo is the streaming service for sports fans. Its huge library of channels includes regional and international sports leagues, setting it apart from the competition. You can also tack on additional programming to your plan, but it'll cost you extra.
How to watch New York Liberty vs. Indiana Fever from anywhere
WNBA fans traveling away from the US can still access their usual websites and apps with the aid of a VPN, or virtual private network. VPNs are cybersecurity tools that let you alter your device's virtual location, so that your go-to services work from anywhere in the world — all while boosting your online security and privacy. Just keep in mind that since the services we've highlighted require US methods of payment, this option will work best for Americans who are simply traveling abroad at the moment.
ExpressVPN is our No. 1 pick. It's a top-rated virtual private network with tons of servers, robust cybersecurity features, and a hassle-free 30-day money-back guarantee. You can learn more about the service in our official ExpressVPN review.
With its consistent performance, reliable security, and expansive global streaming features, ExpressVPN is the best VPN out there, excelling in every spec and offering many advanced features that make it exceptional. Better yet, you can save more than 60% right now and get up to four months free.
Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Business Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
