The Indiana Fever drafting Caitlin Clark will forever be a game-changing moment for the WNBA. She instantly became a star and helped the entire league reach new heights. Clark brought a ton of fans to the W, helped the Fever get back to the playoffs, and broke several records along the way. It was an unforgettable year, but just how good was Clark?
The WNBA is full of talent and is adding their 13th franchise for the 2025 season. Getting minutes is difficult. Nobody expected Clark to be this good so quickly. She finished fourth in MVP voting and broke the record for assists in a game and season in year one. The 22-year-old is arguably the best creator in the W already.
The Fever’s star will always have her naysayers, but this stat proves she is on a different level. Here is a closer look at who compares to Clark in points generated.
Caitlin Clark generates the highest percentage of team points in the W
The 22-year-old generated 38.3 points per game this season, which is 45.2 percent of the Fever’s offense. She dominated the WNBA in this category and only NBA superstars can compare with her percentage.
Caitlin Clark generated more of her team’s points than every WNBA/NBA player except Luka Doncic 🤯

The Fever should use Dallas as a blueprint in building around Clark. Luka Doncic just led the Mavs to the NBA Finals and is the only one able to top her percentage of points created. Clark is on that level but needs the role player additions that Nico Harrison and his team made over the last year.
Creating over 45 percent of the team’s points is an absurd number. The list features only star talents on both sides and proves the 22-year-old is already among the elite players in all of basketball. Clark's popularity brings her to another level. The sky is the limit, and the 6'0 guard will only generate more buckets.
The Fever started 1-8 before clawing back to make the playoffs for the first time since 2016. Clark and company will be significantly better in year two. Expect more points and assists from the 22-year-old. She is ready to dominate, and Indiana is committed to building around her.
Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever want to finish in the top four in 2025. The 22-year-old will upgrade her game and the roster around her will be better. Indiana wants to contend for a championship, so a crucial offseason awaits. Stay tuned for all the latest.
