- Caitlin Clark spoke to the media on May 14, 2024, before her WNBA debut in Indiana Fever's game against the Connecticut Sun.
The No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft is coming off a record-setting college career at Iowa.
“This is what you’ve worked for and dreamed of. Now you get to put your jersey on for the first real time and go out there and play,” Clark said. “We get to play on the biggest stage, there’s gonna be a lot of people there, it’s gonna be loud. But you only play your first WNBA game once. I think I just want to enjoy it. It’s gonna be competitive. They’re really good, so you’ve got to prep the right way, too. More than anything, we’re ready for the challenge.”
Even before playing a WNBA game, Clark has left her mark in the pros. The league's draft had record viewership, and her No. 22 Indiana Fever jerseys have been flying off the shelves.
Three WNBA teams have already moved their games to bigger arenas to keep up with the demand for tickets to watch her play. Her debut in Connecticut is sold out - the first sellout for the Sun in a season opener since they played their inaugural game at Mohegan Sun Arena in 2003 after moving from Orlando.

You just have to love Caitlin. She's so humble, down to earth, and personable!❤
Thanks for watching the video!
Yeah absolutely! And she has a fun way of saying "bass-ball" too. No need for that second syllable! 😜 She's a great kid... Can't wait to watch the game tonight!
Grace 👑 is all I can say !! She's got it all. I'm a proud Iowa girl !! Good luck to the Fever tonight !!
-Yeah a lot of players could learn from Caitlin how to handle themselves, not to be so hateful, jealous and arrogant.
The crowds are coming to see Caitlin Clark play basketball.
Not the WNBA.
yes, but you'll still have to watch the WNBA players. Not just clark.
i dont' watch nba, i watch CC
3:08 Listen to her words
Sorry but there are no crowds. Look at that empty stadium. Looks just like game time
I came for Clark but honestly these league is good. There's a lot of great players on all these teams. Enjoying the wnba more then NBA lol. And I can relate more because I can't dunk !
Let Caitlin be Caitlin- She's incredible!!!❤
CC don’t let Christy Sides get into your head. Just be you. Play your game. Hit those 3’s Good Luck 👍
Yup 💯👏Facts
Let's hope this imbecile of a coach is fired within a week
This girl is my idol ❤ She's a team player! She's doing so much for women's athletes. Can't wait for tonight's game ❤❤❤
Overrated
Caitlin is for sure bringing some class into this league!!! Can't wait for Paige and Ju Ju.. Rice to get into the league.. get these OLD HEADS OUT!!!!
The WNBA has dozens of classy players.
This interview shows a real pro. Go Caitlin. She sounds a bit like Larry Bird when he came into the NBA. Cool & collected, knowing he could do some things.
Caitlin clark is the best female basketball player in the world
How could she get so much hate? I just don't understand. She is so humble and has such a great perspective. She is literally admitting that she is not perfect and she's going to mess up. Then when she does, haters act like she's a horrible person. I hope she never sees these rude comments!
Let’s hope CC can bring some class into this failed basement league. It really needs some class
In the end, it’s women playing basketball. Just because she is by far the best college player at the moment, does it mean she’s going to single-handedly turn everything around and make a winner out of a loser. Realistically Indiana shouldn’t have a 20-20 record in the playoffs as their goal. What we’re likely to see is the hype die and interest fall off twice as quick as it came on.
@@billiestevens318 She is not the best college player, she is the highest scorer.
I understand your point, it fits better with the goat conversation because for the last year she did score of the most points, and was the best player
Coach needs to turn Caitlin loose andclet her do her thing. Yes she might miss a lot of 3's but she will also make 3's.
A hopeful thing is the coach never actually said to stop the 3s. Just said they would work on the inside game. Clark has brilliance on both, so tde work on teamwork inside should really pay off.
dude, when you know who you are that's the coolest you're ever gonna be and everything falls into place because you KNOW yourself
As an Ohio st fan I want to see Jacy Sheldon play for Dallas Wings.
Mature
I like this young lady; she is smart and a person of good character.
Coach better let #22 cook 🍳
Go girl 😀❤
I'm glad/happy she slept well.
You know she was at the tables yesterday… not locked in at all
Ice in her veins..
This is why everyone loves her because she is a realist and she is humble and like she said she is human. 😊
ahhh no, not everyone love males stealing woman sports spotlight
The amount of pressure they are putting on her is extreme.
Big crowds will not affect Caitlin, but it will affect all the other players 😮
Those who have tickets to Caitlin's first regular season WNBA game have been "Enchanted."
OMG I am here reading these comment, how can you not see it....wow
