Caitlin Clark sends NFL crowd wild as she attends Steelers-Colts game after being dumped out of WNBA playoffs

Caitlin Clark received a warm ovation when she was featured on the video board at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis on Sunday.

The Indiana Fever rookie sensation was enjoying the Steelers-Colts game and set the NFL crowd to a frenzy after a phenomenal first-year campaign in the WNBA.

Clark enjoyed the action with Lexie Hull to her left and boyfriend Connor McCaffery to her right.

The Colts ran an interactive ‘Who You Got?’ segment at the stadium for the fans to participate in. After asking spectators to pick between Clark and ‘The Haters’ they revealed her presence to those in attendance.

Clark then waved at the camera as the crowd cheered on and applauded Indiana’s newest star.

Throughout the 2024 WNBA season, the No 1 overall pick sent the league’s attendance and viewership numbers to new heights after her collegiate career at the University of Iowa.

Aside from sparking interest in the league, Clark led Indiana to their first WNBA playoff appearance since 2016 before they got swept by the Connecticut Sun in the first round.

Despite being eliminated early, Clark notched another WNBA record at the tail end right before the playoffs, as she now holds the most assists in a single season in the league.

Clark entered their late September game against the defending champion Las Vegas Aces just four assists away from overtaking Connecticut star Alyssa Thomas’ 316 dimes in 2013.

Within the first half of the contest, Clark notched her record-breaking 317th assist with her fifth dime of the evening. Clark did so with an inbounds pass to set up teammate Kelsey Mitchell.

On July 17, Clark broke the single-game assists record by dropping 19 dimes against the Dallas Wings. She then set the record for single-season assists by a rookie on August 19.

Additionally, Clark made more three-pointers than any rookie in WNBA history and became the first newcomer to record multiple triple-doubles.

Clark averaged 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds and 8.4 assists in her debut season and was crowned the Rookie of the Year while finishing near the top of MVP votes.

The Colts gave Clark and their fans a show as they won 27-24 and improved to a 2-2 record.
