The buzz around Caitlin Clark has calmed down lately as she settles into the WNBA with the Indiana Fever. At one point, discussions even compared her to Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese in a Magic Johnson-Larry Bird type rivalry. Despite being labeled as controversial or polarizing, Clark has remained composed and focused on her game.
With 24 games into her rookie season, Clark has become a major topic in sports. A recent study by National Research Group surveyed over 1,000 sports fans and found that Clark is actually quite popular, with media coverage only enhancing her image.
While this is just one study, it’s clear that Clark is gaining positive attention overall. Despite some attempts to discredit her, the data shows that she is growing in popularity as more people get to know her.
Amidst all the chatter, Clark’s popularity continues to rise with increased exposure. This reinforces what many suspected, but now there is concrete evidence to support it.
