With the WNBA offseason in full swing after the conclusion of the finals between the New York Liberty and Minnesota Lynx, many players have set their sights on rest and recovery. But that’s not the mindset of Indiana Fever’s standout guard, Caitlin Clark. Even as others wind down, Clark has already turned her focus to improving her game, as evidenced by a recent video posted by the Fever showing the rookie working out at the Indiana Pacers’ practice facility, less than a month after finishing her first WNBA season.
In the video, Clark emphasizes her relentless drive, expressing that she’s merely “scratching the surface” of her potential. “There are so many facets of my game that I aim to refine, and being back in the gym every day is essential for that progress,” she shared. Despite a historic debut season that saw her break multiple records and earn the Rookie of the Year award, Clark is determined to push her game even further.
Clark’s rookie season with the Fever was nothing short of remarkable. Averaging 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 8.4 assists per game, she led the league in assists and was the top scorer among rookies. Not only did she secure a spot on the 2024 WNBA All-Star roster, but she was also the only first-year player to start on either Team WNBA or Team USA. Clark set records for the most assists in a rookie season (337) and three-pointers made (122), solidifying her reputation as one of the most dynamic newcomers in WNBA history.
Beyond her individual accolades, Clark also helped elevate the Indiana Fever, guiding the team to its first playoff berth since 2016 and finishing the season with a balanced 20-20 record. While her rookie campaign showcased her talent, Clark views this phase as the beginning of a promising journey. Her unwavering dedication to improvement is a clear signal to her peers that she’s far from reaching her ceiling—something that could spell trouble for the rest of the league in seasons to come.
