The new documentary series “Full Court Press” on ESPN+ will feature a deep dive into an extraordinary season of women’s basketball, focusing on star players like Caitlin Clark.
The series, set to premiere this weekend on ABC and ESPN+, will follow athletes such as Kiki Rice, Kamilla Cardoso, and Clark through their collegiate journeys.
A recently released teaser from the documentary captures a candid moment with Caitlin Clark following a tough loss for her Iowa team against Nebraska in February. Visibly frustrated, Clark expressed her disbelief at the outcome. “Bullsh-t. That team is not f-cking better than us,” she remarked, her reaction caught on camera by ESPN. In that particular game, Nebraska managed to keep Clark scoreless during the crucial fourth quarter.
However, Clark and her team would have their moment of redemption the following month. The Iowa standout led her team to victory over Nebraska, clinching their third consecutive Big Ten championship with a stellar 34-point performance, as reported by ESPN.com.

The series is a production collaboration between NFL Hall of Famer Peyton Manning’s Omaha Productions and Words & Pictures, under the auspices of ESPN+. Manning had discussed the potential of this series with Caitlin Clark prior to the 2023–24 season.
The premiere of the series was held on Monday at the Tobias Theater in Indianapolis, attended by an illustrious group including Clark’s coaches from Iowa, her new teammates from the Indiana Fever, Peyton Manning, Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb, and South Carolina’s head coach Dawn Staley.
In the meantime, Clark is gearing up for her WNBA debut.
The Indiana Fever, having recently defeated the Atlanta Dream 83-80 to wrap up their preseason, are set to face the Connecticut Sun on May 14. This game, marking the beginning of the regular season for Clark and the Fever, is scheduled for a 7:30 p.m. ET tip-off.
