Caitlin Clark, the rising star of the Indiana Fever, has captured the hearts of fans of all ages, including the youngest among them. After returning to the court following the WNBA’s Olympic break, Clark attended a fan event where she had a memorable encounter with a newborn 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢.

During the event, a new mom approached Clark, proudly presenting her two-week-old infant. “We have the biggest fan,” the mother exclaimed, highlighting the excitement of introducing her 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 to the basketball star.

Initially hesitant about holding the tiny bundle of joy, the 22-year-old star eventually embraced the moment, cradling the 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 with care. In a sweet gesture, she signed the 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢’s onesie, creating a lasting memory for the family.

Clark’s warm interaction with her youngest fan showcases her approachable nature and dedication to her supporters, further solidifying her status as a beloved figure in the WNBA.

‘So cute,’ the former Iowa star said.

‘Is this the youngest [fan] to get an autograph?’ the woman asked.

‘I think so,’ Clark replied, noting that she once ‘signed an ultrasound.’

Clark is quickly cementing herself as a Rookie of the Year contender as she’s leading the league with 8.2 assists and 17.1 points.

She has also set several records while helping the Fever climb up the standings.

Away from the court, Clark’s presence is clearly impacting her team’s bottom line.

Attendance is up 264 percent for the Fever this season as every single available ticket has been sold.

They’ve also enjoyed a 1,193-percent jump in jersey sales, while the Fever store has seen 700 percent more purchases than one season ago.

The concession stands are enjoying a similar uptick. Not only are hot dog sales up 300 percent, but Hoosiers have bought more than 2,826 gallons of draft beer – a 740-percent jump from 2023.

On social media, the team has gotten more than 800 million page views in the last four months, while adding 1.3 million followers since April 15.

A superstar rookie class, led by Clark and her rival Angel Reese, has given the entire WNBA a huge boost in 2024.

The league inked a new media rights package in July worth about $2.2 billion over 11 years, The Athletic reported at the time.

It nets out to approximately $200 million annually, roughly four times the WNBA’s current media deals with Disney, Ion, CBS and Amazon, which are valued at $50 million annually.
