Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark is gearing up for her first WNBA All-Star game. She has already participated in the orange carpet event and has gone through her first All-Star practice.
After being snubbed from the WNBA Eastern Conference Player of the Week award, with the honor going to New York Liberty guard Sabrina Ionescu, the former Iowa Hawkeyes star has received a different award.
Late Friday afternoon, the WNBA revealed that Clark has been named the Rookie of the Month for July. This will be her second Rookie of the Month award of the 2024 WNBA season as she won the award in May as well. Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese won the award in June.
During July, Clark averaged 20.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 12.5 assists per game. She also broke the record for most assists in a single game and became the first rookie in league history to record a triple-double.
Clark led the Fever to a 3-3 record during the month, keeping Indiana in the playoff hunt.
The WNBA will have a month-long hiatus due to the 2024 Paris Olympics. Clark will see her final action of the month on Saturday, July 20, in the WNBA All-Star game as Team WNBA faces Team USA.
