Caitlin Clark has made quite the splash in her rookie season with the Indiana Fever, proving herself as a top talent in the 2024 WNBA draft. Despite facing criticism online, she has risen above the noise and shown why she belongs in the big leagues.
The No. 1 overall pick has silenced her doubters by leading all rookies in scoring and displaying impressive versatility with her rebounding and playmaking skills. Through seven games, she’s averaging 15.4 points, 6.3 assists, and 5.4 rebounds, solidifying her impact on the court.
While the Fever’s record stands at 1-6, there’s a sense of optimism building around the team, and Clark is a big part of that. Her teammate, starting center Temi Fagbenle, has been thoroughly impressed by Clark’s abilities, especially her playmaking prowess. Fagbenle expressed, “I’ve only had a few of those kind of point guards, who just know, see the play before it’s happened… regular point guards I’m like they didn’t see it… but Caitlin saw that!”
Fagbenle herself has found success alongside Clark, achieving career-high numbers in her first season with the Fever. She’s averaging 9.6 points and 5.4 rebounds, a testament to the positive impact Clark has had on her teammates.
Temi Fagbenle talks about the on-court connection she has developed with Caitlin Clark:
“We just figured it out… She’s a smart player, i’m a smart player… I’m always sprinting the floor and she’s a great passer… It’s really amazing because we haven’t had many practices… pic.twitter.com/tT7CIftSmN

Despite being labeled as a ball-dominant player, Clark’s exceptional playmaking skills often go unnoticed. She possesses a rare level of talent that allows her to influence the game from anywhere on the court, a remarkable feat for a rookie. As Fagbenle noted, “Caitlin has the level of talent to change the game at any level of the floor, which is extremely rare, especially in her rookie year.”
