Caitlin Clark debuts Prada outfit for 2024 WNBA Draft

Former Iowa women’s basketball star Caitlin Clark arrived in style for Monday’s 2024 WNBA Draft at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.

Clark pulled up hours before the event gets underway wearing Prada — the first time Prada has dressed anyone for the NBA or WNBA Draft, per Front Office Sports. Clark will almost certainly hear her name called when the Indiana Fever make the No. 1 overall selection just after 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.

Clark, who had already earned the title as the best player in the nation, outdid herself in her senior season with the Hawkeyes. In 39 games, she posted averages of 31.6 points, 8.9 assists and 7.4 rebounds per game. Clark shot 45.5% from the field and 37.8% from behind the arc. She led the Hawkeyes to their second consecutive Women’s Basketball National Championship Game.

With a pair of made free throw attempts against Ohio State in the regular season finale last month, Clark passed “Pistol” Pete Maravich’s 3,667 career points scored at LSU to sit atop the Division I college basketball all-time scoring list. Maravich’s mark stood for more than 50 years before Clark broke the record.

Caitlin Clark on her expectations in WNBA: I want to be ‘one of the best players in the world’

As the most hyped prospect to enter the WNBA in some time or perhaps all-time, Clark knows the expectations are high. That’s fine by her, as she’s set on becoming “one of the best players in the world.”

“I mean, I think my expectation is to be one of the best players in the world one day,” Clark told Holly Rowe of ESPN, asked about her expectations for herself at the next level. “To be the best player, one of the best players one day. I think, I wouldn’t expect anything less than that. That’s just kind of, you know, how I go about my business. I think, if I didn’t expect that, people around me would be like, ‘You’re selling yourself short,’ because that’s how much they believe in me. Also, they know how much work I put in.

“I don’t know, I think just enjoy it. This is my job now, but to me, this is fun. How lucky am I that I get to play a sport that I’ve loved since I was five years old, as my job, and do that every single day? And that’s really when I’m at my best, when I’m smiling and having fun, and remembering I do this because I love it. It’s not who I am, it’s just what I do. I think when I remember those things, I’m going to be in good hands.”
