Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark is excited to play with fellow rookie Angel Reese of the Chicago Sky in the WNBA All-Star Game. That's exactly what she said when being interviewed at the festivities in Phoenix, while also offering a prediction...that Reese would lead the contest in rebounds.

Clark had this to say about the on court combination, "I think it's cool. It's obviously rare to have two rookies in the All-Star Game...Obviously the fans are super excited about it. I think it's just really good for the W. I mean and obviously she's having an incredible year...she's certainly probably gonna lead the game in rebounds that's just what she does." When Caitlin was told she would likely lead the event in assists she demurred but both doing so in those categories is a solid bet. Clark and Reese are currently the league leaders.

Of course Clark did not arrive to the weekend alone, she was flanked by her Fever teammates Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell. The trio received rave reviews with the fits they wore working as well together as they do out on the court. Caitlin has gotten the bulk of the attention but both Boston and Mitchell have had big seasons for Indiana.

They will take floor together with Reese and the rest of the WNBA All-Stars as they attempt to take down the Team USA Olympics squad led by Eastern and Western Conference Players of the Week Sabrina Ionescu and A'ja Wilson of the New York Liberty and Las Vegas Aces respectively.
