As expected former Iowa star Caitlin Clark was the first pick in the WNBA Draft.

The announcement on ESPN’s coverage of the draft. Clark is a two-time national player of the year and is college basketball’s all-time leading scorer and third all-time in assists.

Clark feels her passing will be her biggest strength in the WNBA.

Clark led the Hawkeyes to back-to-back appearances in the national title game and shared a moment with Hawkeye coach Lisa Bluder after being selected by the Fever.

Clark joins a young but talented Fever team that is anxious to regain its winning ways. Indiana has not made the WNBA playoffs since 2016.

Clark has spent the past year balancing endorsement opportunities, school and basketball and feels that has prepared her for the next level.
