Caitlin Clark has let the rest of the WNBA know she isn’t coming to play after helping the Indiana Fever clinch a playoff spot this week.

It’s been quite a ride for the Rookie of the Year hopeful, who was named an All-Star as a rookie and turned the season around for Indiana after a torrid start. She’s now achieved another feat as the Fever will be playing playoff basketball for the first time since 2016, mostly thanks to her.

 

The Eastern Conference side secured their spot earlier this week, something Clark discussed with reporters before their win over the Los Angeles Sparks on Wednesday night.

 

Clark claimed she always expected to qualify for the playoffs but didn’t downplay its significance.

 

“Definitely a big moment for this place, but at the same time, I came in with the expectation that this is what’s gonna happen,” she explained.

She then sounded a warning out to the rest of the league.

 

 

“For me, this isn’t a party,” she said before adding, “There’s so much more left to be done.”

Caitlin Clark And The Fever Could Go Even Higher In The Standings Before The Postseason Begins

 

The Fever are currently the sixth seed in the East and have a few games left to improve their position, though two of their upcoming fixtures are against the Las Vegas Aces, who just won back-to-back titles.

 

They finish the regular season against the struggling Washington Mystics, which could allow them to move into the fifth spot.

Things are going to be interesting for Caitlin Clark from here on out.
