WATCH: WNBA rookie Caitlin Clark's candid response to a question left fans shocked

Rising WNBA star Caitlin Clark has stood out in the ongoing season, continually breaking records and making headlines. During the Indiana Fever's 89-77 loss to the Seattle Storm, Clark achieved a remarkable milestone, becoming the fastest player in WNBA history to accumulate over 300 points, 100 rebounds, and 100 assists.

Despite these accomplishments, Clark's journey has not been without challenges. She currently leads the league with 106 turnovers, a statistic that highlights the steep learning curve she faces. During a press conference on June 27, a reporter asked Clark about the best advice she had received from a veteran player during a game this season.

Her candid response took many by surprise. “Nobody gives me advice in games. I wish,” the 22-year-old Clark replied. Her comment struck a chord with fans and observers, revealing a poignant aspect of her rookie experience.
