Clark also discussed her eagerness to work with Aliyah Boston, another former No. 1 pick and the reigning Rookie of the Year. Clark praised Boston’s skills and outlined her strategy for their on-court collaboration.

That’s what I’m gonna do. I’m gonna go in there and be like ‘hey, go make a layup.’ She’s gonna make my life easy. But she’s incredible,” Clark expressed.
This dynamic duo is expected to make significant waves in the WNBA, bringing both talent and teamwork to the forefront.
As Clark prepares for her rookie season, the Fever fans and team management are filled with hope and excitement, eagerly awaiting the impact she will have on the court.
