The WNBA rookie is repping the Purple and Gold in a special way.
Indiana Fever rookie point guard Caitlin Clark, the top pick in this year's draft after a two-time AP Player of the Year run with the Iowa Hawkeyes, is already a WNBA All-Star.
The sharpshooting 22-year-old has emerged as one of the elite shooters and distributors in the league already, though she has also dealt with her fair share of hard screens and defensive attention. Through 26 games for the 11-15 Fever, Clark has been averaging 17.1 points on .405/.327/.891 shooting splits, 8.2 assists, 5.8 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 0.8 blocks a night.
Clark is commemorating her first All-Star berth in high style, by paying tribute to a fallen Los Angeles Lakers legend. During team practice today, Clark was spotted wearing a pair of special Kobe 6 Protro “WNBA All-Star” Player Edition Nikes, fresh kicks in the legendary line of 18-time All-Star and five-time Lakers champion shooting guard Kobe Bryant.Clark's Fever, also led by second-year All-Star power forward Aliyah Boston, are currently the No. 7 seed in the league, mere percentage points ahead of the No.
