Clark was caught sitting courtside supporting her former team. The cameras were on her, like they usually are, and a photo of her has gone viral, making people’s eyes pop.
It appears the 23-year-old superstar has gained some serious muscle this offseason. At least that’s what it looks like in the photo.

Clark is coming off an impressive rookie season, one in which she made an All-Star team, All-WNBA First Team, WNBA assist leader, and WNBA All-Rookie Team.
She is the real deal, and will only get better with her new and improved body. Fans couldn’t help but comment on her transformation.
Her strength comes from carrying the WNBA

Clark was able to catch up with the Big Ten Network, and they asked her about her former team.
“It’s pretty fun, and I love getting to be able to support this program,” Clark stated. “Obviously a lot of these girls were my teammates, and getting to see Jan in her first year and they’re playing their best basketball,” she added.
The Hawkeyes are under the tutelage of first-year head coach Jan Jensen, who replaced Lisa Bluder, Clarke’s head coach at the time, who retired last season.
“I love this time of the year, March, I miss it,” Clark said. A sentiment fans likely share when it comes to seeing her participating in March Madness as well.
Clark will look to continue to do damage in the WNBA after a historic first year with the Indiana Fever.
She finished her rookie season by averaging 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 8.4 assists per game. While her rookie season was a success, she was often shoved and pushed around. That was the common narrative other than her spectacular play in her first season in the WNBA.
After all that talk and chatter, it appears she heard and is taking the necessary steps needed to take her game to the next level. This is only the beginning for the superstar who has become the face of the sport.
