Caitlin Clark is heavy favorite (-1111) to win the rookie of the year award and is third in MVP odds.

With the Olympic Games in progress, with many medals still to be disputed, mainly in Track and field and both men’s and women’s basketball, and with more than a week left before the closing of the games we still have to wait more than 10 days for the return of the WNBA season that will be back on August 15th. Despite the league break that started back on July 17, rookie phenom Caitlin Clark has continued to be in the spotlight during her short break which has helped her to recharge her batteries and study more about the game to improve hers.

Caitlin Clark, who has taken the league to unthinkable levels in merchandise sells, ratings and many others positive stats, has become the basketball newest star. Known for her outstanding performance on the court, Clark recently made a significant impact off the court by surprising Des Moines Public Schools with a generous school supply drive. This act of kindness saw her, as the WNBA assist leader that she is, distributing essential school supplies to students, ensuring they have the resources they need for a successful academic year. In addition to taking photos with the fans, Clark presented the students with school supplies in Nike backpacks, giving away a total of 350.

“Caitlin Clark is not only one of the world’s most talented and well-known athletes but also incredibly generous,” stated Des Moines Public Schools Superintendent Ian Roberts in a news release. “She understands the importance of giving back when you achieve success, and that’s exactly what she did today.” The supplies aided 300 students from Des Moines Public Schools, along with 50 students from nearby parochial schools chosen by caseworkers, according to Phil Roeder, the district’s communications and public affairs director.
