Caitlin Clark, the former Hawkeye basketball star, is making waves in the WNBA with the Indiana Fever, averaging over 24 points and 10 assists in her last eight games. The Fever, who started the season poorly at 1-8, have turned their fortunes around and are currently above .500 for the first time since 2019, with playoff hopes alive for the first time in eight years. Clark's impact is being compared to Michael Jordan's, as she has garnered significant attention, leading to record jersey sales and a lucrative $28 million Nike deal. WNBA analyst Nancy Lieberman has called for Clark to be recognized similarly to Jordan, criticizing the jealousy she faces. Furthermore, Clark has been praised for developing a floater shot, making her even harder to defend. As the Fever prepare for playoffs, they are set to face tough competition but have a favorable home schedule ahead.
