How did Caitlin Clark do in her WNBA preseason debut? Did the Iowa basketball star live up to the hype with the Indiana Fever?
Absolutely.

Clark already had 16 points by halftime, leading all other scorers by six points. She may be a rookie, but Clark isn’t playing like it.
If this is what Clark plans on doing when the regular season tips off, the Indiana Fever will be must-watch TV all season long, and we’d imagine a playoff appearance is in sight too.
