Caitlin Clark proved the hype is legit in her first WNBA preseason game.
The No. 1 pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft scored a game-high 21 points that included multiple of her patented deep 3-point shots off the dribble. She finished the game with five made 3s.
The Fever didn’t come away with the win as Arike Ogunbowale knocked down the game-winning 3-pointer with three seconds remaining. The Wings won 79-76.
Nonetheless, the world was impressed by Clark’s performance and shouted her out via social media.
