Caitlin Clark is already a problem on the court — but now? She’s looking even stronger off it.
During the Big Ten showdown between the Iowa Hawkeyes and Ohio State Buckeyes on Friday, March 7, Clark was spotted courtside, cheering on her former team. But while fans were locked into the intense back-and-forth battle, one thing stole the spotlight — a viral photo of Clark looking noticeably bulked up.
It’s safe to say the WNBA better be ready.
Caitlin Clark Looks Stronger Than Ever in Viral Photo
Clark, now with the Indiana Fever, was in the building to support her former squad and new Hawkeyes head coach Jan Jensen. But while she was there for the team, fans online couldn’t help but notice something else, that Cleark has clearly been putting in work in the weight room.
A courtside photo of Clark quickly went viral, showing off a more muscular frame, and fans wasted no time reacting.
One fan commented that Clark has added “pure American muscle.”
Another put the WNBA on notice, saying, “Ain’t no one gonna push her around this season.”
But it’s not just about looking stronger; it’s also about playing stronger. And if there’s one thing Clark has shown since entering the WNBA, it’s that she’s built for this.
In her rookie season, Clark wasted no time making her mark:
19.2 PPG, 8.4 APG, 5.7 RPG — insane numbers for a first-year player 122 3-pointers made — the second-most in a single WNBA season, right behind Sabrina Ionescu Unanimous WNBA Rookie of the Year
Clark’s transition from college dominance to a pro-level impact has been seamless. But now, she’s gearing up for an even bigger sophomore season.
A Stronger Clark Means a Stronger Fever
Honestly, Clark’s first season wasn’t easy. She adjusted to the physicality of the WNBA, faced double teams every night, and still managed to put up elite numbers. But if she’s bulking up in the offseason, that means she’s ready to take it to another level.
More muscle means more strength and durability. That could translate to finishing stronger at the rim, playing bigger minutes, and becoming even tougher to guard.
The Fever are building something special, and Clark is at the heart of it. She already helped lead them to their first playoff appearance since 2016, and now, she’s looking to take them even further.
With a stronger frame, a full year of experience, and that signature competitive fire, Clark is primed for a monster second season. So yeah, that viral pic? It’s not just offseason gains — it’s a warning to the rest of the WNBA.
