University of Iowa basketball all-star Caitlin Clark won’t be in an Iowa Hawkeye jersey much longer.
She said Thursday that she will enter the WNBA draft this spring.
“While this season is far from over and we have a lot more goals to achieve, it will be my last one at Iowa,” Clark said in a social media statement Thursday. “I am excited to be entering the 2024 WNBA Draft.
Clark, who this month became the all-time NCAA women’s scorer, said it’s “impossible to fully express my gratitude” to those who have supported her during her basketball journey for the Hawkeyes, including her teammates, coaches, trainers and staff, as well as University of Iowa fans and those who came out to support from around the nation — “especially the young kids.”
She also thanked her friends and family, and said “none of this would be possible without” them.
“Because of all of you, my dreams came true,” Clark wrote.
The WNBA draft will take place April 15, after the conclusion of the college basketball season.
