The 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year’s season is over after her team lost to the Connecticut Sun on Wednesday, Sept. 25

Caitlin Clark’s rookie season has come to an end following the Indiana Fever’s first-round playoff loss to the Connecticut Sun. In a recent media availability after the game on September 25, the superstar showcased her trademark sense of humor while discussing her future plans off the court.

“I was focused on beating the Connecticut Sun; I haven’t thought too far down the line,” the 22-year-old remarked. “I don’t know what I’m going to do tomorrow, I don’t know what I’m going to do the next day.”

Clark’s lighthearted approach reflects her dedication to the game, even in the face of disappointment. As she transitions from her inaugural WNBA season, fans are eager to see what this rising star will accomplish next, both on and off the court.

The 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year added, “Maybe play some golf. That’s what I’m going to do until it becomes too cold in Indiana. I’ll become a professional golfer.”

Wednesday’s matchup — where the Fever hoped to tie the best of 3 series 1-1 — was a tight game that produced a tense off-the-court moment when security officials escorted a fan away from his courtside seat following an exchange with Clark.

Security guards at the Mohegan Sun Arena were seen on ESPN’s broadcast escorting him away from his seat with 1:29 left in the first quarter. The moment came after Clark pointed out the fan to referees, and appeared to remark about something that was said.

Clark briefly spoke about the incident with ESPN’s Holly Rowe after the first half, and explained how she was staying focused on the game.

“My four other teammates that are right here with me,” Clark said. “I think that’s the most important.”

The playoff series got off to a physical start on Sunday, when Clark suffered a black eye at the hands of Sun guard DiJonai Carrington.

Clark later clarified that she didn’t believe Carrington, 26, meant to hurt her.

“It wasn’t intentional by any means, just watch the play,” Clark told reporters, and laughed off the idea that the jab was on purpose.
