Taurasi had nothing but love for rookie sharpshooter Clark after he ignited the Indiana Fever’s comeback victory against the Phoenix Mercury on Sunday. Clark almost recorded a triple-double in their battle.
“What Caitlin’s accomplished in her brief career thus far is incredible,” Taurasi told reporters via news. She is a gamer, which is the one thing about her that I truly adore. She has clearly put in a lot of work. She’s faced a lot of challenges and pressure, but she perseveres and becomes better with each passing game.
She has a really bright future, and it’s exciting to watch that as she moves forward after becoming a veteran and playing in this league for a very long time.”
Clark and Taurasi were seen conversing often on the court in the broadcast. Taurasi was Clark’s childhood hero.
