Caitlin Clark’s immediate future after the Indiana Fever’s season-ending loss to the Connecticut Sun on Wednesday night has been revealed, as the rookie star has confirmed her next steps.
There was plenty of speculation surrounding whether Clark would play in the new Unrivaled league or be courted by an overseas team to play while the WNBA offseason occurs.
Clark confirmed neither has been decided, and she’s going to try another sport in her first break from basketball in nearly a year.
‘I don’t know what I’m going to do tomorrow. I don’t know what I’m going to do the next day. Maybe play some golf? I think that’s what I’m going to do until it gets too cold in Indiana, either that or become a professional golfer,’ Clark said Wednesday.
Clark won WNBA Rookie of the Year and set plenty of records during her first professional season.
Caitlin Clark revealed her offseason plans after the Indiana Fever’s season ended Wednesday
Since starting her final season at Iowa last October, Caitlin Clark has been non-stop, either in the midst of a basketball season or preparing intensively for one. Now, she faces the opportunity for her first extended break in 12 months, if she chooses to take it.
The Connecticut Sun, however, dashed the Indiana Fever’s playoff hopes with an 87-81 win, advancing to the WNBA semifinals. The Sun led by nine points to open the fourth quarter, but Clark kept the Fever in the game with two clutch baskets that allowed Indiana to momentarily take the lead.
Clark continued to make history, becoming the first player in WNBA history to record 25 points, five rebounds, and five assists in a playoff game.
Connecticut advance to face the winner of the Minnesota Lynx versus Phoenix Mercury series.
The second-seeded Lynx have a 1-0 series advantage and would have home-court advantage in a semifinals matchup against the Sun.
This will be the sixth straight semifinals appearance for the Sun, while the Fever made the postseason for the first time since 2016 in Clark’s first professional season.
Clark led the revival for the Fever, who had only won double-digit games in a season twice from 2017-2023.
