Caitlin Clark, the NCAA's all-time leading scorer, was selected as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft presented by State Farm by the Indiana Fever. The draft event took place at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York. Clark, celebrated for her record-setting college career with the Iowa Hawkeyes, was widely anticipated to be the top pick. Her selection marks the beginning of a new era for the Indiana Fever, who also had the No. 1 pick in the previous year, selecting Aliya Boston. This makes the Fever the third team to have consecutive No. 1 picks in the WNBA Draft history. Additionally, Clark made a fashion statement by wearing a Prada outfit, becoming the first WNBA or NBA draftee to don the luxury brand at a draft. Her selection has also led to an increase in ticket prices, known as the 'Caitlin Clark effect'.
