It may have only been a preseason game, but a crowd nearly three times larger than what the Indiana Fever averaged last year was on hand to see WNBA number-one draft pick Caitlin Clark hit the court at home for the first time.
Caitlin Clark scored 12 points in the Indiana Fever 's 83-80 preseason win over the Atlanta Dream.The WNBA 's number-one draft pick, Caitlin Clark , was cheered on by more than 13,000 spectators as she made her first appearance at home for the Indiana Fever in a preseason game.
A late-arriving but louder-than-usual crowd in Indianapolis roared during Clark's official introduction to Fever fans and again when she made her first basket, a lay-up with 7:00 left in the first quarter. "It was a lot of fun, I thought they were loud, I thought they were into it. It was fun to see," Clark said following her home debut."I think that just shows you what it's going to be like for us all season. It's going to help us."Caitlin Clark is taken first in the draft in one of the least surprising decisions in WNBA history, but Nyadiew Puoch is shocked and thrilled to hear she will be linking with fellow Australian Izzy Borlase in Atlanta.
