Caitlin Clark Selected as WNBA No. 1 Draft Pick by Indiana Fever
Iowa Guard Makes History as Top Prospect
April 3, 2023NEW YORK, N.Y. - College basketball prodigy Caitlin Clark has been selected first overall by the Indiana Fever in the 2023 WNBA Draft. The 6'1" guard from Iowa made history as the first player since Breanna Stewart in 2016 to be drafted with the top pick.
A Bright Future
The Fever, who have not reached the playoffs since 2016, will be looking to Clark to turn their fortunes around. The Iowa native averaged 27.4 points per game and 8.0 assists per game during her collegiate career, establishing herself as one of the most dynamic and versatile players in the country.
Clark's selection marks the end of a historic college career. She finished her time in Iowa as the all-time leading scorer in NCAA basketball, surpassing Brittney Griner's record of 3,283 points. With her impressive stats and unwavering determination, Clark has proven that she has the potential to become a star in the WNBA.
The Fever will open their regular season on May 13 against the Connecticut Sun, and all eyes will be on Clark to see if she can make an immediate impact at the professional level.
