Caitlin Clark’s draft night wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. The Fever guard recalled feeling “so upset” after Indiana selected her with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft, which took place at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on April 15.

From the outside looking in, it appeared as though Caitlin Clark was having something comparable to a “Cinderella” story during the 2024 WNBA Draft, which, of course, saw her selected as the No. 1 pick by the Indiana Fever.

Despite the less-than-ideal start to her WNBA career, Caitlin Clark still impressed in her rookie year. The playmaker quickly established herself as a force in the WNBA, breaking records, making it to the WNBA All-Star team, and earning the Rookie of the Year honor.
