Caitlin Clark’s impact on the WNBA can be measured in a lot of ways — the record-breaking television ratings, the sold-out arenas, the scores of new fans.

But one graphic shown during the Indiana Fever’s game on Saturday gave a new, stunning perspective on the impact that Clark and her rookie class have had on the league.

The graphic displayed the total figures for All-Star voting, showing Clark on top of this year’s class with more than 700,000 total votes. As the graphic showed, Clark’s vote total was higher than the top five vote-getters from the 2023 season — combined.

Last year’s leader was A’Ja Wilson with 95,860 total votes. Wilson was the third-highest vote-getter this year but increased her number of votes more than six-fold.

While fellow rookie Angel Reese has added to the explosion in attention for the WNBA, most experts credit Clark with most of the attention.

Wilson said she believes it’s given a boost to the entire league, with many new fans tuning in and getting hooked on the high quality of play in the league.

“I feel like the energy is good. It’s a good vibe. It’s a good feel,” Wilson said. “People are just coming to see the product on the court.”
