As much as she wanted to play in the Olympics, Caitlin Clark savors the thought of some time off during the WNBA's month-long hiatus for the Paris Games.
Never mind that Indiana's rookie sensation didn't really look as if she needed any while setting a WNBA record with 19 assists in the Fever's final game before the break.

And that's because she has. Two weeks after her second consecutive trip to the national championship game with Iowa, Clark was the No.1 pick in the WNBA draft. About another three weeks later, her preseason debut came in a sold-out arena on the University of Texas at Arlington campus, the same place she set the assists record in front of another sellout.
