Caitlin Clark’s first appearance as a member of the Indiana Fever came to fruition Friday at Gainbridge Field House.

The No. 1 pick in the WNBA Draft received a standing ovation as she played the role of revving up the crowd ahead of the Indiana Pacers first home playoff game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Clark joins the Fever after a sensational career at Iowa where she led the Hawkeyes to two consecutive national championship appearances. She will hope to carry that momentum into her WNBA career and help the Fever see the postseason for the first time since 2016.
