It took 36 games for Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark to be immortalized in maize.
A farm in Hobart, Indiana, made a corn maze in the No. 1 overall pick’s image that also reads “We love Caitlin Clark.”
It took a few months, but Clark has lived up to the hype in her first WNBA season. She’s averaging 19.2 points, 8.5 assists and 5.8 rebounds while having set a bevy of league and franchise records.
The second half of the campaign is when Clark and the Fever have truly shined.
Indiana is 8-2 since the Olympic break ended and ranks first in offensive rating (110.4), per WNBA.com. Clark has had a big hand in that, putting up nearly a double-double (24.7 points and 9.3 assists) per contest during that stretch and becoming the heavy favorite for Rookie of the Year.
Fever fans were over the moon when the team won the 2024 draft lottery and gained the opportunity to pick the NCAA’s all-time leading scorer. Clark has already proven to be the franchise cornerstone many had hoped.
