Indiana Key Player Set to Take on New League Rookies Are Already Joining the Roster

WNBA Rookie of the Year Caitlin Clark is the standout figure in women’s basketball, drawing significant attention from everyone in the field eager to collaborate with the Indiana Fever guard.

The three-on-three tournament will showcase up to 30 elite players, including Angel Reese, Kelsey Plum, and Brittney Griner, in Miami. They’ve secured a significant TV deal in the U.S. to broadcast the event, but fans tuning in won’t see Clark competing against her top-tier peers.

The Iowa native has outlined her winter plans, focusing on playing golf as much as possible. She playfully suggested trading her basketball for a club to pursue a professional golf career, especially with an offer from the LPGA on the table. Meanwhile, Unrivaled is still trying to entice Clark back to basketball.

“If we’re fortunate enough to get Caitlin Clark, will we travel to Iowa?” Unrivaled investor David Levy shared with Front Office Sports. “I think we might have a few more rookies joining, which could be a hint.”

The Iowa native has shared her winter plans, which revolve around playing golf as much as she can. She joked about swapping her basketball for a golf club to chase a professional golf career, especially with an LPGA offer on the table. However, Unrivaled is still hoping to draw Clark back to basketball.

The report reveals that Unrivaled intends to make a “full-court press” and will be reaching out to Clark in the coming weeks with a lucrative offer to play alongside some of the biggest names in basketball.

In her rookie WNBA season with the Fever, Clark earned £58,687, while rival Angel Reese has expressed frustration that the league’s salaries barely cover basic living expenses. However, both players have endorsement deals that significantly exceed their on-court earnings.
