Being a part of USA Basketball is one of Caitlin Clark’s biggest dreams.
While Clark won’t be joining USA Basketball as part of the women’s Olympics roster for the Paris Games, it seems like a foregone conclusion that Clark will be a mainstay on Olympics rosters of the future.
After dispatching of the Minnesota Lynx on Sunday, Clark was asked about her potential national team future.
“That’s what you dream of as a young kid, getting to represent your country. And, obviously, me and AB have the experience of playing for the junior national teams. You know how fun that is and how cool it is to wear ‘USA’ across your chest.
“So, it gives you something to work for, something to dream for. But, also I feel like I can continue to get a lot better. And for me, that’s my main focus and that’s what excites me the most going forward,” Clark said.
Like Clark, Fever forward Aliyah Boston could find herself on a number of Olympic teams in the future as well. Boston shared what representing USA Basketball would mean to her.
“That’s definitely a goal of mine. People dream of being an Olympian and that’s one of mine. I know coach Reeve is the head coach, and so for me just gonna continue to work hard and do what I need to do to get on that team,” Boston said.
After the win over Minnesota, the Fever are now 11-14 on the season and 8-4 in their past 12 games dating back to June 13.
Clark is averaging 16.8 points, 7.8 assists, 5.8 rebounds and 1.5 steals per game, while shooting 39.8% from the field, 33.2% from 3-point range and 89.7% from the free throw line.
Clark’s stretch of five consecutive double-doubles came to a close in the win over the Lynx, but she still managed to record a stat line of 17 points, six assists, three rebounds and two steals.
The Fever return to action on Wednesday, July 17 at 6:30 p.m. CT on ESPN at the Dallas Wings in the team’s final game before the All-Star and Olympics break.
