Iowa women’s basketball superstar Caitlin Clark is taking the sports world by storm.
After her explosive 2023 women’s NCAA tournament Final Four performance, she helped her Hawkeyes reach Sunday’s national title game against LSU.
If Clark’s team is victorious, it would be Iowa’s first-ever championship in women’s basketball. The team has only made two Final Four appearances, this year and in 1993.
Many will wonder if Clark will turn an all-time women’s college hoops career into an WNBA career after this season, but that won’t come until 2024 at the earliest.
Clark isn’t eligible to declare for the 2023 WNBA Draft since she is still a junior with Iowa.
However, she could opt to stay with the program after the 2023-24 season if she chooses to use the extra year of eligibility granted to NCAA athletes because of the COVID-19 pandemic, per Sporting News.

Whenever she does want to go pro, it’s incredibly likely she’d be the highly coveted top pick in the WNBA Draft.
Until then, she’ll be lighting up the scoreboard in Johnson County, Iowa.
