Caitlin Clark’s two worlds collided on Sunday when the Indiana Fever traveled to Iowa to take on the Brazilian national team in a preseason game. As expected, the Fever had a comfortable afternoon, and cruised to a 108-44 win in front of a sold-out crowd.
Playing in her first game at Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City since she graduated last year, Clark finished with 16 points, six rebounds and five assists on 6 of 10 from the field, including 4 of 6 from downtown, in 19 minutes of action.
“They always exceed [my expectations]. They were amazing,” Clark said of the Iowa fans. “Just really thankful to be able to come back here and appreciate this place and these fans. It was as loud as it gets when we went on that 8-0 run to start the game. Just thankful.”
