Caitlin Clark took the WNBA by storm during her rookie year, and according to the All-Star Indiana Fever guard, she’s just getting started.
Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark feels as though she’s “just scratching the surface” after her Rookie of the Year debut WNBA season. The 22-year-old arrived in the league with expectations sky-high, having been the face of women’s college basketball with Iowa – where she became the all-time leading points scorer across both the male and female D1 game.
Her coronation came in April of this year, when the lottery-winning Fever made the easiest decision in franchise history, selecting Clark No.1 draft pick overall.
Few would have expected that her game would transfer directly to the big leagues so soon. But Clark proceeded to smash record after record, earning an All-WNBA First Team berth. Worryingly for Clark’s rivals, according to the star herself, she is just getting started.
“I feel like I’m just scratching the surface,” Clark revealed during an Indiana Fever off-season workout video on X. “I feel like there’s just so many areas that I want to improve in and to continue to get in the gym and work on that every single day.”
In the video, Clark can be seen working on adding a floater to her game, which could potentially help her fare better against taller opponents, as well as working on her left-handed dribbling.
The idea that Clark has more to offer than her rookie season should send shivers down the spines of her opponents. The point guard led the league in assists with 337 – a new record – and added a further 769 points to her impressive tally of dimes – the most ever by a WNBA rookie. Her 122 threes were also the second most in single-season history.
It is not just her actions on the court making waves, but those off it, too. Clark was named the fourth-most marketable athlete in work by SportsPro, and it is estimated that Nike is shelling out £23million ($30m) each year to keep the prodigy tied down.
Having recently gone viral for her stellar golf game, which she lamented couldn’t be kept up during the WNBA season, Clark’s talents look to know no bounds. However, as omnipotent as Clark seems, she was unable to carry her Fever to a ring this year. A 2-0 series defeat to the Alyssa Thomas-led Connecticut Sun ended her season last month, and the star-studded New York Liberty went on to claim the crown.
Perhaps Clark is setting her sights higher than individual accolades with this latest statement, but regardless, the league will be well and truly on notice come 2025, as, in the 22-year-old’s eyes, there are more records to be broken, buckets to be scored, and titles to be won
