Movieguide® recently reported on Clark:

Former Iowa Hawkeyes basketball standout Caitlin Clark made her rookie debut for the Indiana Fever on May 14 and told TODAY how it feels to be “the new kid in school.”

“It feels good. I mean, I think just the excitement and the energy around this league, around our team,” Clark said. “But at the same time, I think just learning day by day. That’s going to be the biggest thing for myself.”

“And I think continuing to stack days, whether you learn one little thing or you learn a lot, I think continuing to improve is going to be the biggest part of it for myself. But also, don’t lose the fun of it,” she added.
