Clark was named the 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year after a record-breaking rookie season with the Indiana Fever. Clark, who has been out for the season due to injury, received a surprise phone call from WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert during a team practice, with her teammates present to celebrate.
