These months have been some of the best in WNBA history when it comes to ratings, sales, and arena sellouts, and a big reason for this surge is Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever (11-14). Despite a rocky start with a 1-8 record in the first month, the Fever found their rhythm and have gone 10-6 since June and are third in the eastern conference standings behind New York Liberty (20-4) and Connecticut Sun (18-5).

Clark’s influence on the court is undeniable. While she initially led the league in turnovers (5.6 per game), her playmaking ability has been a major factor in her team’s turnaround. She currently leads the league in assists with an impressive 7.8 per game, an extraordinary feat for a rookie. Her performance in the Fever’s 81-74 victory over Minnesota Lynx (16-8) was highlighted by a heartfelt gesture-she gave her game sneakers to a young fan, creating an unforgettable memory for the lucky recipient.
Besides Clark is not only an example for new generations but also older people want to attend his games. Like this 90 year old lady who attended her first WNBA game to see Clark score 17 points but who took the spotlight was Aliyah Boston with 17 points and 16 rebounds for the Indina Fever.
Clark is the WNBA assist leader as a rookie
Clark’s willingness to assist both on and off the court has made her a standout figure in the league. Her six assists in the game against Minnesota were the fewest in her last eight games, where she had consistently (5 games) recorded double-digit assists, boosting her average and solidifying her status as the top assister in the WNBA while adding nearly 17 points per game, generating more than 30 points per game between assists and points, she is an offensive machine.
Looking ahead, the Fever have a match against the Dallas Wings (5-19) before the league pauses for the All-Star Game and the Olympics. Clark, though not participating in the Olympics, will have a chance to reflect on her achievements during this break. With 14 more games left in the season, she and her team will be aiming for a playoff spot, something the Fever haven’t achieved since 2016, back when Clark was just 14 years old.
