Fans react as Caitlin Clark flirts with triple-double in WNBA preseason action
Caitlin Clark is making her presence fully known and showing the WNBA what many saw as she was a member of the Iowa Hawkeyes: she is not just a scorer, but an all-around contributor. Clark has the ability to take a game over and score, but she is also more than willing to set her teammates up with open shots and collect rebounds.
The Indiana Fever won their second WNBA preseason game 83-80 over the Atlanta Dream. Caitlin Clark contributed 12 points. What is impressive is how she flirted with a triple-double by also adding in eight rebounds and six assists.
With this game being the final preseason game for the Fever, all attention now turns to Tuesday, May 14 as they are set to open the regular season on the road against the Connecticut Sun in a game that is already breaking the mold for streaming on new platforms.
Fans across the sports world took notice of Clark’s showing and took to social media to react to it. Check out some of the best reactions to Caitlin Clark’s second preseason game.

Don’t downplay yourself, Caitlin!
Caitlin Clark starts: “I didn’t think I was that effective tonight.”
