After an historic season in which she set numerous records, superstar Caitlin Clark has officially been named the WNBA's Rookie of the Year.
The obvious is now official - Caitlin Clark has been named the WNBA's Rookie of the Year for the 2024 season. The announcement came on Thursday afternoon. Clark more than lived up to the billing as the No. 1 overall pick, following a storied career at Iowa in which she became the NCAA's all-time leading scorer. Roughly a week after losing the national championship for the second year in a row, Clark was selected by the Indiana Fever, and early on, it was a struggle.
Indiana lost 10 of their first 13 games to start the season, but when Clark got hot, so did the Fever. A four-game winning streak kicked off what became an awesome stretch for the Fever, as they wound up going 17-10 in their final 27 games, clinching a playoff spot. In her first 14 games, Clark posted up-and-down numbers, failing to reach 15 points in a game seven times, but dropping 20-plus another six. But, she posted double-digit points in her next 25 games and played much more consistently.
It's just the beginning for Clark, so the best is certainly yet to come. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
