Caitlin Clark is gearing up for her first WNBA playoffs

Although Caitlin Clark was in high spirits while showcasing her commentary skills during the MLB game, she has more serious matters ahead. The 22-year-old rising star is preparing for her first WNBA playoffs, after playing a pivotal role in helping the Indiana Fever secure their first playoff berth in eight years.

Clark and the Fever are scheduled to square off against the Connecticut Sun in the first round of the playoffs. The first game of the best-of-three series is slated to be held at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut.

Indiana is the underdog heading into its matchup against the Sun. The franchise lost three of the four games against its Eastern Conference rivals in the regular season.

Having said that, Caitlin Clark and co. recorded a win against Connecticut in the most recent meeting between both teams. Talking about Clark's performance against the Sun this season, the rookie had a tough time executing her game.

In four games against the Sun, Clark averaged 16.5 points on 39.2% shooting from the field, including 34.3% from 3-point range. Her rebounding and assist numbers dipped, with just two boards and 3.8 assists per game, while also recording 6.3 turnovers.

To better understand Clark's struggle against the Sun, the rookie averaged 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds and 8.4 assists for the entire season.

For Indiana to pull off an upset against Connecticut, Caitlin Clark will need to significantly improve her performance compared to her regular season outings against the same opponent.
