A new era for women’s basketball begins as Caitlin Clark makes her full professional debut for the Indiana Fever as the new WNBA season kicks off Tuesday.
After a college career that rewrote the record books and shattered attendance and television ratings, Clark, the No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft, will line up for Indiana’s season-opening road game against the Connecticut Sun.
The prospect of Clark’s regular season debut already reflects the excitement that accompanied her collegiate career, when sellout crowds flocked to Iowa Hawkeyes games to catch a glimpse of a generational talent.
