The impact of Caitlin Clark continues to reverberate, even before the start of the WNBA season. As the new star of the Indiana Fever, she has captivated fans’ attention since her draft selection, with everyone eager to learn about her journey to becoming the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer. Clark’s presence exudes a unique energy, elevating those around her with what’s been dubbed the “Caitlin Clark effect.”
Upon her arrival in Indianapolis, Clark received an enthusiastic welcome from former Indianapolis Colts punter, Pat McAfee, during her appearance on The Pat McAfee Show. Presenting her with an official #22 jersey, McAfee expressed the city’s excitement to have her, emphasizing that she could play any position on the team.
Although initially surprised, Clark happily embraced the gesture, showcasing the gear with pride. McAfee reiterated the community’s enthusiasm for her presence in Indiana, expressing how thrilled they all are to have her.
Ever since the NCAA Championship game, fans have been waiting for Clark to play in the WNBA as she will be teaming up with last year’s #1 draft pick Aliyah Boston. But this will not be the first time they have joined forces. Clark and Boston were former teammates on an under-19 USA basketball team.
Clark will now head home to complete her graduation and finish the business left at Iowa, then she will be moving to Indianapolis for her WNBA debut. Let’s get into the details of that.
Caitlin Clark making her WNBA debut
Since the commencement of the 2024 NCAA championship tournament, Clark’s schedule has been jam-packed. She hasn’t been able to get a breather in the middle of this back-and-forth situation. Moreover, the heftiness of things clashing with each other is not stopping soon as Clark is set to make her WNBA debut on May 14, which is the same as her graduation day at Iowa.
While she is speculated to miss her graduation in person, Clark will most likely make it to both events, given her highly driven and all-rounder mindset.
