Caitlin Clark, Jalen Rose, Darryn Peterson share stage at Final Four Fan Fest panel
A surprise Lilly panel brought together three generations of basketball voices at the Final Four, with Clark emphasizing health, growth, and winning entering Year 3 with the Indiana Fever.
As open practices for the men’s Final Four got underway Friday morning, a major event was held just north of Lucas Oil Stadium — inside the Indiana Convention Center.
That’s where Fan Fest is being held all weekend, spanning more than 300,000 square feet of promotions and activities. The NCAA’s major partners are well represented: Capital One, AT&T, Coca-Cola, BodyArmor, Great Clips, Ritz, TurboTax, The Home Depot, Dove, Geico, Wilson, and Eli Lilly & Company.
The latter hosted a surprise panel that brought three big names to center court at the Lilly basketball court.
Former Pacer Jalen Rose, Kansas freshman guard — and potential No. 1 pick — Darryn Peterson, and Indiana Fever All-Star guard Caitlin Clark were introduced to a crowd that rapidly grew throughout the 30-minute session.
