Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark continues to make headlines after an extraordinary rookie season in the WNBA. Breaking records left and right, Clark set the highest point total for a guard in league history (769) and dished out a record 19 assists in a single game. Before going pro, she led the Iowa Hawkeyes to back-to-back championship appearances and became the NCAA Division I all-time leading scorer with 3,951 points. Recently, Iowa honored her by retiring her No. 22 jersey at Carver-Hawkeye Arena.
Despite opting out of the Unrivaled league, Clark hasn’t taken a break. She’s been putting in intense workouts, even on her birthday, and fans have noticed. A viral photo earlier this month showcased her noticeably stronger physique, sparking excitement about her progress ahead of the new WNBA season. Fever fans are eagerly awaiting the season opener, with Indiana set to appear in a record 41 nationally televised games out of 44.
Adding to the buzz, Netflix announced on Monday that Clark will be a guest on David Letterman’s acclaimed series My Next Guest Needs No Introduction on April 8. The interview offers a rare glimpse into her relentless competitive nature, which she admits has been both a strength and a challenge. A preview clip reveals a humorous childhood story about Clark sprinting between houses while trick-or-treating, determined to collect the most candy—a reflection of her unwavering drive.
Clark also shared how her competitive spirit often turned holiday board games into high-stakes battles. Laughing about past family game nights, she joked, “Then everybody hates me by the end of the night, and I’m like, ‘Oh, great. I ruined Christmas!’” However, she promised to keep things lighthearted this year.
Fans are already buzzing about the upcoming episode, eager to see Clark’s candid conversation with Letterman. With her WNBA career off to an electric start and her influence growing beyond the court, this is just another chapter in what promises to be an unforgettable journey.
