Indiana Fever Select Caitlin Clark with No. 1 Overall Pick in 2024 WNBA Draft
Long-Anticipated Move for Iowa Superstar
Caitlin Clark Makes History as First Hawkeye Taken First Overall
In a long-anticipated move, the Indiana Fever officially selected Iowa superstar Caitlin Clark with the top overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft. The 6-foot guard became the first Hawkeye to be taken first overall in the league's history.
"It's an honor and a privilege to be drafted by the Indiana Fever with the number one pick," said Clark after being selected. "I'm so excited to join such a great organization and start my WNBA career."
Clark is a two-time consensus All-American and the 2021 Big Ten Player of the Year. She averaged 27.4 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 8.2 assists per game in her junior season at Iowa. She is considered one of the most versatile and talented players in the country.
The Fever are hoping that Clark can help them turn around their fortunes after a disappointing 12-20 season in 2023. Clark is expected to be a key part of their offense and help them improve their record in the competitive Eastern Conference.
The 2024 WNBA Draft was held on April 15, 2024, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. The Fever had the top pick in the draft after finishing with the worst record in the league in 2023.
