Caitlin Clark is the first rookie in over a decade to make the All-WNBA First Team

Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark continues to win in the WNBA offseason.

Clark was named to the 2024 All-WNBA First Team on Wednesday, becoming the first rookie to achieve the feat since Candace Parker in 2008 and the fifth rookie to do so since 2000. Sue Bird (2002), Tamika Catchings (2002) and Diana Taurasi (2004) were also selected to the All-WNBA First Team in their rookie campaigns.

Clark received 52 first-team votes from a group of 67 voters. She joins Catchings as the only Fever players in franchise history to earn All-WNBA First Team honors.

Last month, Clark was also named WNBA Rookie of the Year and finished fourth in MVP voting after having a historic season in which she broke a number of records and led the league in several statistical categories. She averaged 19.2 points and 8.4 assists while shooting 41.7% from the field in 40 regular season games.

Clark and the Fever were eliminated by the Connecticut Sun in the first round of the WNBA playoffs in September and will look to bolster their roster in the upcoming free agency period.
