“At just 22, Caitlin Clark is already a force of nature whose
impact cannot be overstated,” said Thomas Neumann, Athlon Sports
Editor in Chief. “Our magazine explores her influence on and off
the court during her basketball journey and celebrates her
trailblazing rookie season.”
In the last 12 months, Clark finished a record-setting
collegiate career at the University of Iowa and was named Rookie of
the Year in her WNBA debut season.
Notable quotes from exclusive stories
the magazine:
“I don’t think any one of us were ready for what that was going
to be like.” – Indiana Fever coach Christie Sides, on the avalanche
of media and fan interest in her team after the addition of
Clark.
“Caitlin has demonstrated that she’s a great ambassador for the
game, really, on all counts. She does a great job with the media —
both when things are going well and when things are tough. She
takes accountability in losses and in wins. She spreads the credit
out to her teammates. She’s doing great things.” – Indiana Pacers
coach Rick Carlisle.
From the “A Season to Remember” article by Scott Agness:
Following the NCAA national title game, Clark went straight from
the plane in Iowa City to her home in Des Moines, excited for a
home-cooked meal from her mom. She drove back to Iowa City the next
day for a team celebration, then flew to L.A. and then to New York
to appear on “Saturday Night Live” two days before the draft,
providing incredible publicity for the league. And she hadn’t even
graduated yet.
“I think the biggest thing is I’m just very lucky to be in this
moment, and all these opportunities and these things, they’re once
in a lifetime,” said Clark. “When things might get tiring or you
have to do stuff, I think the biggest thing is to look at it just
as an opportunity. This isn’t something everybody gets to do.”
