Given the crazy audiences she managed to generate as a simple NCAA player, her first steps in the big leagues were inevitably going to be the subject of special attention.

The arrival of Caitlin Clark in the WNBA could not go unnoticed, as the young guard shone the spotlight on her during her four years at university. However, everything does not necessarily go as planned.

Caitlin Clark, #1 cible in WNBA?

Author of her first WNBA game last Tuesday with the Fever, Clark then signed a sad franchise record . Anything but ideal for starting your professional career.
