Caitlin Clark silences the doubters as she dazzles in WNBA preseason debut with impressive 21 points for Fever but can’t find the game winner as Arike Ogunbowale’s last-gasp three-pointer snatches win for Dallas
Caitlin Clark made her WNBA debut on Friday night with all eyes on the former Iowa star, scoring 21 points for the Indiana Fever against the Dallas Wings in a preseason game.
However, the No 1 overall pick in this year’s WNBA Draft could not lead her team to victory, as Arike Ogunbowale’s 3-pointer with three seconds left downed the Fever 79-76.
Clark’s first professional saw her get the start and play the third-most minutes of any Fever player with 28.
Clark added three rebounds, two assists, and two steals while shooting 5-for-13 from 3-point range in the game.

Clark was the Fever’s leading scorer and was the game’s co-leader in points with Wings’ star Jaelyn Brown, with each scoring 21.
Ogunbowale added 19 for the Wings, with her crossover, step-back 3-pointer sealing the win for Dallas.
NaLyssa Smith also added 20 points for Indiana, as Clark’s place as an integral player for the team from day No 1 appears to be set.
The attention for a WNBA preseason game was palpable with Clark having plenty of eyes on her in Arlington from the outset.
