Exciting Caitlin Clark announcement made before WNBA All-Star Game

Caitlin Clark is eager to represent the Indiana Fever for the WNBA All-Star Game on Saturday. She will captain Team Spoon under coach Teresa Weatherspoon.

The 24-year-old will link up with Fever teammate Aliyah Boston along with a number of other superstars for Saturday’s exhibition. The other three starters on their squad are A’ja Wilson, Olivia Miles and Jessica Shepard.

Kelsey Mitchell will be on the opposite side with Team Coop. Now in her fourth consecutive All-Star Game, the Fever guard will team up with Paige Bueckers, Breanna Stewart, Natasha Howard and Gabby Williams as the Team Coop starters.

This is Clark’s third straight year as an All-Star. However, this will be just her second All-Star Game after the former Rookie of the Year was forced to withdraw from last year’s spectacle due to injury.
