Like James, Clark has been under the spotlight for much of her career, dating back to her college days at Iowa. She has lived up to the immense expectations placed on her as the No. 1 overall pick in 2024.
The WNBA season is still a few months away and will mark her third year in the league, but fans won’t have to wait that long to see her back on the court. Clark is set to participate in the 2026 FIBA World Cup Qualifiers, which begin in early March and will mark her debut with the U.S. women’s national team.
