[PHOTOS] Caitlin Clark’s WNBA Rookie Season Highlights… So Far!
2024 is the year of Caitlin Clark.
Even people who aren't from Iowa know who Clark is these days.
She helped lead the Iowa Hawkeyes women's basketball team to the NCAA championship game for a second year in a row. While they were a crowd favorite, they did not end up winning the title.
The Iowa Hawkeyes fell to the South Carolina Gamecocks 87 - 75.
Barely two weeks after the tough loss to the undefeated South Carolina, Caitlin Clark made her debut on 'Saturday Night Live' during Weekend Update.
She was in town for the WNBA Draft and decided to drop by for a brief appearance.
On April 15th, the West Des Moines native was selected first overall in the WNBA Draft. She was picked up by the Indiana Fever who had been having a rough few seasons.
One of the highlights for fans during Clark's rookie season in the WNBA has been her friendship and chemistry with teammate Aliyah Boston. Boston was also selected first in the draft the year before Caitlin.
A few other key moments from Clark's rookie season involved the Chicago Sky.
Not only does the Sky have the former Hawkeye's former college rival, Angel Reese, but there was also a messy moment that took the internet by storm involving Chennedy Carter.
During the team's first matchup at the Commissioner's Cup, Chennedy Carter made a shot and then shoved Caitlin for no apparent reason.
Carter got a Flagrant 1 call for the unsportsmanlike shove.
She also ended up playing on the same team as Angel this season. Both women were the only rookies that were selected for the WNBA All-Star Team.
Clark was one of the five starters.
Team WNBA went up against an elite group of women who were going to Paris to represent Team USA in the Olympics in the 5 versus 5 game.
These Olympians fell to Team USA in an extremely watchable matchup.
